57 Developer Relations jobs in South Africa

This is a remote position available anywhere in the world! Linkedin makes us show a country, but we hire the best people wherever they are.

At Railway, we make it extremely simple for engineers to deploy logic without thinking about servers. Our goal is to make developers orders of magnitude more efficient by becoming the operating system for modern development.

We give developers a sandbox to espouse their ideas. We are looking for someone who can let them know what is possible with the platform. We seek to make developers 100x more effective, and build 100x more impactful systems. Building leverage is a core part of what we do.

Oft an under-appreciated way to help developers build those levers is to focus on improving the speed and effectiveness of those developers.

About The Role

For this role, you will:

• Implement programs to gather developer feedback and then exercise discretion on how to best communicate to those users
• Build and refine product adoption loops through content, improvements to the product, and nurturing community
• Assist the team on initiatives around our Open Source presence such as our CLI, Nixpacks, and Templates
• Craft resources that help grow the developer ecosystem and ensure that the experience for new and existing users is as seamless as possible

Dev Rel is an often misunderstood role; we see it as a hybrid of being able to make cool stuff and talking about it, but also being the tip of the spear in getting feedback from the market. You should be knowledgeable about modern DevOps practices, the state of the cloud infra world, while being opinionated about how the next 10 years of Dev Tools should look like.

This is a high impact, high agency role where you are given a high degree of autonomy to work with any function you desire while receiving any support from the team you need. As our first hire in this area, we expect you to wear a lot of hats while setting the strategy.

About You

• A strong ability to communicate clearly, whether it’s via writing, video, or practical projects incorporating Railway
• An enthusiast about our product; Railway uses Railway to build Railway. You should be able to share insights with developers of all stripes to let them know how our product can help them
• A great sense of direction and prioritization when it comes to dealing with the ambiguity of an early stage startup
• Someone who is comfortable in a few different languages/stacks and can create educational content on how to deploy those projects on a public cloud or Railway
• Able to take really technical concepts and make them as easy to understand as possible

We value and love to work with diverse persons from all backgrounds

Things to Know

For better or worse, we’re a startup; our team dynamics are different from companies of different sizes and stages.

• We’re distributed ALL across the globe, and that’s only going to be more and more distributed. As a result, stuff is ALWAYS happening.
• We do NOT expect you to work all the time, but you’ll have to be diligent about your boundaries because the end of your day may overlap with the start of someone else’s.
• We’re a small team, with high ownership, who are not only passionate about what we do, but seek to be exceptional as well. At the time of writing, we’re 21, serving hundreds of thousands of users. There’s a lot of stuff going on, and a lot of ambiguity.
• We want you to own it. We believe that ownership is a key to growth, and part of that growth is not only being able to make the choices, but owning the success, or failure, that comes with those choices.

Benefits And Perks

At Railway, we provide best in class benefits. Great salary, full health benefits including dependents, strong equity grants, equipment stipend, and much more. For more details, check back on the main careers page.

Beyond compensation, there are a few things that we believe that make working at Railway truly unique:

• Autonomy: We have very few meetings. Just a Monday and a Friday to go over the Company Board. We think your time is sacred, whether it’s at work, or outside of work.
• Ownership: We’re a company with a high ownership, high autonomy culture. We hope that you’ll come in, help us, and over the course of many years do the best work of your life. When we bring you onboard, we expect you to change the company.
• Novel problems/solutions: We’re a startup that’s well funded, with cool problems, which lets us implement novel solutions! We abhor “busywork” and think, whether it’s community, engineering, operations, etc there’s always opportunity for creative and high leverage solutions.
• Growth: We want you to grow with us, but we know that talent is loaned, so when you figure out what area you want to grow in next, whether it’s at Railway or outside, we’ll make sure you land there.

How We Hire

No tricks. No surprises. Here’s the entire process.

• Talk with us about the role
• This is completely open ended and we’re just trying to see who you are, what you want to do, and where you wanna go.
• Work on a small project to discuss in the interview
• Asynchronously implement the following:
• Build something and deploy it on Railway using as many features as possible
• You will submit your solution before the interview, and you’ll sit down with a member of the team and go over the above. We’ll poke into your solution, as well as get you acquainted with a member of the team.
• You can, and SHOULD ask us questions ahead of time if you have them.
• Review your solution with the Team
• You’ll sit down with someone on the team and go over the above. We’ll poke into your solution, as well as get you acquainted with two more members of the team.
• Looking for: Learn about your problem solving skills. How you break down a problem and how you present a solution.
• Interview Structure (60 Minutes):
• Pre-work (submitted before your interview): Build and deploy your project
• 0-5 minutes: Introduction
• 5-20 minutes: Walking through the project
• 20-50 minutes: Walking through how you think about content, relations, intersection with other roles
• 50-60 minutes: Time for you to ask your interviewers questions
• Meet the Team
• You’ll meet the Team, which will be comprised of 4 people from vastly different sections of the company.
• Looking for: How you work with the rest of the team and communicate.
• Offer and Details Chat with CEO
• Finally, we will go over the process, the role, and hammer out the details about your position, onboarding, and all the deets.

Final Note : The interview goes both ways . Once again, please ask us things. Many things! Hard things. That’s what we’re here for.

At Matter Labs, we believe freedom drives progress and prosperity. We don’t see ourselves as a company, but as a team aligned around a single mission: to advance personal freedom for all (see ZK Credo).

To achieve this goal, we’re building zkSync — a credibly neutral, fully open source technology stack and network on top of Ethereum, which is owned and governed by its community. We use advanced cryptography called zero-knowledge proofs to scale Ethereum infinitely without compromising on security or decentralization. With a world-class team, a community of over 1M supporters across Twitter + Discord, and hundreds of millions $ in funding, we have abundant resources to accomplish the mission.

As a Developer Relations Engineer, you will play a critical role in supporting the product rollout and product/developer support we will offer. We’re looking for Engineers who can win the hearts and minds of developer and crypto communities by delivering value through developer relations, developer tools, and technical support on our platform and rapid ecosystem growth. You must be a deeply technical storyteller who enjoys connecting with other technical practitioners and influencers and helping them elevate their craft.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Creating and executing plans and processes to improve developers’ experience
• Supporting scaling and curating developer tools
• Unblocking developers facing technical questions and issues
• Pushing out content targeted towards platform developers, including technical blog posts on new features, platform design, issues, and upgrades
• Engaging our developer community on Twitter, Discord, Discourse, Stack Overflow, and GitHub
• Supporting our courses and educational materials
• Improving and maintaining documentation so it’s accessible to developers at all levels
• Leading a voice of the customer program to ensure we bring feedback from technical customers back into our product roadmap
• Cooperating with marketing and business development leads to improving developer-facing product positioning and communications

What We Look For In You

• 5+ years of experience in a direct, hands-on technical community or end-user-focused roles such as developer relations, developer advocacy, engineering support, and technical support or 5+ years of experience as a software developer or engineer
• Proven experience in supporting a technical community where you were a key factor in driving measurable positive outcomes
• A strong vision for where the industry is going, and staying on top of new technologies and stacks
• Passionate and familiar with dApp developers, cryptocurrency, and blockchain technology
• Deep familiarity with building developer portals and roadmap activity
• Excellent communication skills as a strong technical writer

Nice to Have

• Previous experience in web3 or blockchain companies/projects
• An established presence online as a thinker and leader in this space is a massive plus
• Crypto experience, especially knowledge of Ethereum & L2s is a plus

Working at Matter Labs

At Matter Labs, you have the freedom to work how you want, when you want, and from where you want. All positions are 100% remote (with optional travel to team and/or industry events). We operate in lean and nimble teams, with no time tracking and minimum bureaucracy. We move fast. Only results matter. We will provide you with everything you need to learn, grow, and be productive.

Our results-only environment means anyone who believes in our mission can join us, regardless of background, sexual orientation, race, gender, and age. Both our team and community are made up of people from diverse backgrounds. That’s why, out of politeness and respect, we refrain from opinions on politics, religion, or sex at the workplace.

We designed our culture around the tenants of freedom and ownership. This ethos will underpin our positive-sum community as we evolve toward full decentralization.

If this role resonates with you, apply now for prompt feedback.

Important: We are remote-first, operating in the timezones between UTC-5 (Latam and Atlantic Coast) to UTC+7 (South-East Asia).
