About the job

About the Role

LaunchDarkly is looking for a Senior Developer Advocate to turn signups into successful teams. You'll be the human on the other side of that signup: the Growth team identifies and routes high-intent leads, and you turn them into activated, successful users through genuinely helpful, personalized outreach, while building AI-assisted workflows that extend the same help to everyone else.

Responsibilities

  • Activate high-intent signups: own the strategy for follow-up on trial and developer-tier signups, prioritizing ICP-fit enterprise trials; help them get an SDK live, find the right resources, and reach real usage.
  • Help first, always: outreach means solving problems (a stuck install, the right tutorial, a working example in their stack), personalized to what each team is actually doing.
  • Build a public voice: create tutorials, videos, and posts under your own name, so developers recognize a helpful practitioner.
  • Make the payoff obvious: create first-success content and run sessions and office hours that show customers the outcome they're working toward, and what the platform does beyond flags: experimentation, observability, guarded releases, and AgentControl.
  • Multiply yourself with AI: design and build AI-assisted workflows for outreach, next-step suggestions, and usage analysis.
  • Feed the loop: own the feedback loop on what’s working, where activation stalls, and which signals actually predict success.

Qualifications

  • A technical foundation from a prior role: you've been a developer, a support or solutions engineer, or a customer-facing technologist, and you can credibly troubleshoot an SDK integration.
  • Genuine empathy for developers.
  • Curiosity about how a business engine works: funnels, activation, conversion.
  • Fluent with AI tools: you already build your own workflows and can show them to us.
  • Strong communication across formats: writing, video, and live sessions.
  • Comfort with ambiguity.
  • Demonstrated ability to influence cross-functional partners.
  • Typically requires a minimum of 8 years of related experience.

Bonus Qualifications

  • Developer advocacy or growth experience at a product-led developer tools company.
  • An existing audience or content track record.
  • Experience working with intent signals, lead scoring, or product analytics.
  • Breadth across languages and frameworks.
  • Experience building a new developer program.

Compensation

Target pay ranges based on Geographic Zones for Level 4:

  • Zone 1: San Francisco/Bay Area or NYC Metropolitan Area, Boston, Seattle - $152,900 - $210,210
  • Zone 2: Irvine, LA, Monterey, Santa Barbara, Santa Rosa, Austin, Portland, Philadelphia, Chicago - $137,600 - $189,200
  • Zone 3: All other US locations - $129,900 - $178,640
