Your focus areas among these will depend on your skills and how you can best serve software developers in your programming community

Responsibilities :

Write code that enables developers to be successful with LaunchDarkly . This code may be part of our documentation, technical tutorials on the blog, an open source project, or another developer service, but regardless of where it ends up, you’re figuring out how to inspire and equip developers with code that makes it as easy as possible for them to get to success.

Work closely with the Product team to ensure that our products are developer-centric and that we get the details right for them.

Determine the current and future direction of our developer outreach channels such as blog, docs, YouTube, social, Discord and others.

About LaunchDarkly :

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

Improving the effectiveness and productivity of engineering teams, by providing insights into engineering cadence and stability

At LaunchDarkly, we believe in the power of teams. We're building a team that is humble, open, collaborative, respectful and kind.

We are an equal opportunity employer and value diversity at our company. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status.
