On-site
California
$150,000 - $235,000 USD yearly

Replit is the fastest way to turn ideas into software. With our powerful AI-powered Agent and Assistant, anyone can create and launch apps from natural language in just one click. Build and deploy full-stack applications directly from your browser—no setup required. Never written a line of code in your life? No problem. Replit makes software creation accessible, collaborative, and lightning-fast. Join us in our mission to empower the next generation of builders.

AI brought millions of first‑time builders to software. Replit’s mission is to help them ship. That’s vibe coding: intuitive, AI‑assisted development that feels magical.

This role exists to bridge vibe coding and engineering best practices so beginners ship safely and experienced builders move faster. You’ll turn software fundamentals into simple, approachable workflows people can copy, remix, and trust.

Developer Relations sits at the intersection of community, content, and product. Your work will span all three.

What You’ll Do

Technical Writing & Learning Design

  • Translate best practices: Turn testing, version control, security‑by‑default, reliability, and accessibility into friendly guides, checklists, and examples

  • Teach the why: Publish narrative tutorials, changelogs, and decision guides that explain tradeoffs—not just steps

  • Ship clarity: Keep docs up‑to‑date and reduce time‑to‑first‑success for new builders

  • Keep our users updated: Share user successes and product updates through email and social channels

Templates, Starters, and Reference Apps

  • Bridge idea → production: Build starter projects and templates on Replit that feel fun but include the essentials—tests, lint, deploy, observability, secrets, and docs

  • Prototype with AI: Create rapid demos that showcase AI workflows and Replit capabilities for consumer and enterprise use cases

  • Document the pattern: Capture reusable architecture and patterns so others can riff with confidence

Community, Feedback, and Advocacy

  • Be present: Help builders in the open; share learnings with authenticity

  • Close the loop: Turn community feedback into crisp issues, product proposals, and measurable improvements

  • Represent Replit: Speak at meetups, conferences, and hackathons; highlight what people can ship today

What You Bring

  • You’ve shipped software: Personal, open source, or professional—enough to have opinions on reliability, testing, and DX

  • You write to teach: Clear, empathetic communication for different skill levels

  • You’re AI‑curious: Hands‑on with modern AI coding tools and workflows

  • You care about reuse: You build templates and examples others want to copy

Nice‑to‑haves

  • Developer Relations experience, public artifacts (talks, posts, templates)

  • Familiarity with Replit and vibe coding communities

  • Experience organizing community events or programs

What Success Looks Like

  • Adopted templates: A small library of production‑ready starters that thousands of builders use and trust

  • Faster first ship: Time‑to‑first‑success drops for new users; docs and guides feel obvious

  • Teaching with impact: Tutorials and changelogs that are widely shared and referenced

  • Community signal: Healthy feedback loops that influence roadmap and improve developer experience

  • Credible advocacy: Recognized voice for bridging vibe coding and engineering best practices
