## About the role

We're hiring a Developer Relations Engineer reporting to our Chief Growth Officer. You own how developers learn to build with Prefect , Dagster FastMCP and Horizon . That means reference implementations people copy into production, technical content (including video), docs and DX gaps you find by being your own first user, and a public presence on stage, on stream, and in issue threads.

## What they're looking for

- 6+ years writing software professionally, strong Python desirable. This is an engineering role with a public-facing job attached
- A public body of technical work we can go read: repos, posts, docs, talks, or videos developers used. One excellent thing beats ten mediocre ones, and we'd rather see the artifact than hear it described
- You've built things with LLMs and agents (MCP servers, tool calling, agent frameworks, retrieval) and have opinions about what breaks once it's in front of users
- You're good on camera and on stage, or you've clearly got it in you and can show us something. Comfortable isn't enough, a lot of this job is being watched
- You can run as a team of one. You'll choose what to build, ship it, and tell us honestly whether it landed. Nobody is going to hand you a content calendar
