  • Provide feedback to the product teams.
  • Meet with customers to listen to them and educate them about our offerings.
  • Speak to the press on behalf of our products.
  • Contribute as needed to other areas at JetBrains.

We’ll be happy to have you on our team if you have:

  • Applied experience with software engineering best practices: testing, refactoring, version control, etc.
  • Practical experience with JavaScript, TypeScript, and related technologies.
  • Fluency in both spoken and written English.
  • Excellent communication skills, especially the ability to tell a compelling story about a technology.
  • Self-organization, goal-setting, and time-management skills.
  • Willingness to travel.

We’d be especially thrilled if you have:

  • Established reputation in a development community.
  • Experience with JetBrains tools.
  • Experience in developer advocacy.
  • Proficiency in several programming languages (Python, Java, Kotlin, etc.).
