Viam Robotics Senior Developer Advocate at Viam Robotics to build creative robotics projects and represent Viam at developer events. Responsible for creating technical content and growing engagement in developer communities.
Responsibilities
Remote, with travel to events
We’re looking for a Senior Developer Advocate to help more developers discover Viam, understand what’s possible with the platform, and start building with it.
Projects can span a wide range of ideas—from a robotic arm that sorts objects or a computer-vision-powered machine to a smart device or an experiment with emerging physical AI technology.
Our Developer Advocacy team is currently based in New York and are now expanding our presence on the West Coast. You’ll report to the SVP of Product & Education.
Represent Viam at conferences, meetups, hackathons, and other developer events through speaking, teaching, and building alongside developers.
Build creative robotics projects that show developers what’s possible with Viam.
Turn what you build and learn into technical content, including tutorials, videos, sample code, workshops, demos, and talks.
Grow engagement across Viam’s Discord and other developer communities, while building your own credibility and presence in the technical communities that matter to our audience.
Experiment with emerging technologies and developer tools, and identify timely opportunities for Viam to build, teach, or participate.
Build, assemble, test, and troubleshoot the software and hardware behind demos and projects.
Bring feedback from developers back to Product and Engineering, and use engagement and platform activation to understand what’s working and where to focus next.
A track record of creating high-quality technical content for developers, such as tutorials, videos, sample projects, workshops, or talks.
