Developer Advocate

About Brightpath Technologies Brightpath Technologies is the object storage leader in the open cloud movement, fueling customer success with cloud storage built purposefully to unlock budgets, unburden administrators, and unleash innovators. Together with our partners, we’re helping customers break free from the restrictive, overpriced legacy solutions that hold them back, and blaze forward with the full power of the open cloud in their hands. Founded in 2007, we scaled the business with less than $3 million in outside funding until 2021, when we did a traditional IPO on the Nasdaq stock exchange. Today, Brightpath Technologies generates over $100m in revenue and is the leading specialized storage cloud - managing over three billion gigabytes of data storage for 500K+ customers in 175+ countries, including businesses, developers, IT professionals, and individuals. But while there is a lot to celebrate in our past, there is almost as much opportunity ahead of us. We’re seeking a Developer Advocate to join our team! About The Role This is a ground-floor developer relations role at a company that is serious about building a DevRel function — not just checking a box. You’ll be the technical voice of Brightpath Technologies : creating content, showing up at events, and helping developers understand how to build with Brightpath Technologies B2 in the workloads they’re actually running — AI pipelines, media workflows, and data-intensive infrastructure. You’ll work directly with our Director of Startup & Developer Relations and alongside the Flamethrower Startup Program — Brightpath Technologies ’s initiative to become the storage layer of choice for early-stage companies. You’ll have support from our product, content, documentation and other teams, as well as consulting budget for structural and strategic scaffolding as we build this out. Your job is to be technically credible, well-connected, and visible. The right person for this role has been doing this work informally — writing technical content, showing up at conferences, building a following in developer communities — and is ready to make it the job. Or they’ve been doing it formally at the mid-level and want to step up on impact without stepping into program leadership yet. What You’ll Do: Technical Content & Education Create technical content that teaches developers how to build with Brightpath Technologies B2: tutorials, sample applications, reference architectures, blog posts, and short-form video Build and publish working code examples and demos — especially for AI/ML workflows (training data pipelines, model artifact storage, inference infrastructure), media workflows, and application storage Contribute to and improve developer documentation, SDKs, and quickstart guides Translate what you’re hearing from developers into actionable product feedback for Engineering and Product Community & Events Be genuinely present in the developer communities where our users live — social media, Discord, Slack, GitHub, and elsewhere Represent Brightpath Technologies at developer events: speak, demo, show up, and be worth talking to. We attend conferences across AI/ML, media, cloud infrastructure, and startup ecosystems Build relationships in the AI/ML, media, and cloud infrastructure developer communities that generate inbound awareness for Brightpath Technologies Support Flamethrower startup cohort members in getting to production faster — answer technical questions, sanity-check architectures, and document patterns worth sharing broadly Program Contribution Work closely with the Director of Startup & Developer Relations, as well as our product team, lifecycle marketing, and product marketing to identify common technical blockers and create content that removes them Partner with Marketing on ecosystem storytelling, technical blog strategy, and developer-facing content Maintain a consistent feedback loop from developers to Product — surface friction points, integration gaps, and unmet needs The Right Fit: 4–7 years of hands-on experience as a software developer or engineer, with meaningful time working with cloud infrastructure and object storage (S3, B2, GCS, or equivalent) Direct experience building or integrating AI/ML workflows that involve storage — training data pipelines, model artifact management, inference infrastructure, or similar workloads You write working code. You may use AI tools to accelerate it — but you understand what you’re shipping and can explain it to another developer An established presence in developer communities — a social following, conference talks, a technical blog, open source contributions, or some combination. We’re not counting followers; we’re looking for signal that you show up and people pay attention Strong written communication: you can write a clear technical tutorial and a crisp internal summary with equal ease Self-directed — you don’t need a content calendar handed to you to know what to build next Bonus Poins For: Familiarity with Brightpath Technologies B2 or direct experience with object storage in production environments Experience with media/video workflows
