Senior Developer Advocate - AI

Experience in developer advocacy, community, solutions engineering, customer success, or another customer-facing technical role

Technically credible: you can build and demo real things and hold a deep technical conversation without a script

Already active in, or genuinely drawn to, the AI developer scene

An existing network in the Bay Area developer community

Familiarity with feature management, experimentation, observability, or agent frameworks

LaunchDarkly is looking for a Senior Developer Advocate based in the San Francisco Bay Area.

The developer community is deciding right now what the AI era of software looks like, and much of that conversation happens in person: meetups, demo nights, hackathons, and hallway conversations across the city.

That means being in those rooms consistently, as a genuine participant: building long-term relationships with the practitioners shaping how agentic software gets built, bringing their signal back to LaunchDarkly, and showing them, credibly and only when it's relevant, how runtime control changes what they can ship.

: attend Bay Area developer events several times a week (meetups, demo nights, hackathons, conferences), building real relationships with AI and platform engineers over months, not transactions over days

: bring back structured signal on what practitioners are building, where they're stuck, and how they talk about agents, releases, and runtime control

: build and show small, credible demos on AgentControl and the LaunchDarkly platform, and hold your own when the technical questions get hard

Modern software delivery was supposed to be the foundation for a thriving digital business but reality has proven otherwise. Slow, inefficient development cycles, costly outages, and fragmented customer experiences are preventing developers from building their best software. The LaunchDarkly platform helps developers innovate on new features faster while protecting them with a safety valve to instantly rewind when things go wrong. Developers can target product experiences to any customer segment and maximize the business impact of every feature. And by gradually rolling out new application components, they escape nightmare "big-bang" technology migrations.

The LaunchDarkly platform was built to guide engineers to the next frontier of DevOps by:

Improving the velocity and stability of software releases, without the fear of end customer outages

Delivering targeted experiences by easily personalizing features to customer cohorts

Maximizing the business impact of every feature through the ability to experiment and optimize

Coordinating the release and optimization of software to provide consistent experiences across mobile platforms and device types
