Developer Advocacy + Solutions Engineering
Wear two hats at a low-code browser-automation startup. On the
solutions side: scope, architect, and build working
prototype solutions for enterprise clients, including a
$1.3MM deal with one of the world's largest BPOs (largest
contract supported to date), engineering the underlying logic so
demos translate straight into production, not demo magic.
On the DevRel side: run a community of
1,000+ developers, lead 10+ workshops and livestreams a
year, own the Voice of the Developer program (which drove the
Pipedream integration), and maintain ~350 pages of docs and
tutorials. Ship product features in JavaScript, TypeScript,
Node.js, and Python, plus internal AI agents: a support copilot
that cut escalations ~50% and time-to-first-response from
days to hours, and a Mixpanel insights agent that
saves ~1 hr/day.
