Responsibilities
Daily demos: Build recipes in Claude Code/Cursor showing what's possible with Agentic Postgres (MCP integration, zero-copy forks, hybrid search). Record them. Ship them. Iterate based on what lands
Weekly in-person events: Co-host "Agents & Coffee" meetups in SF, give technical talks at Bay Area (and other) meetups. Create energy in rooms, debug live, make Tiger Data the place where people building with agents gather
Build the recipe library: Own our collection of one-shot prompts and demos. Seed it, get the community contributing, surface the best ones. This is your baby
Strategic influence: Partner with CEO and founders on positioning—how do we talk about agents as database users? What features do agentic workflows need? You'll influence what we build and how we talk about it
Technical content: Blogs, videos, workshops that teach the architecture—how MCP works, why tool calling matters, when agents need sandboxed forks. You're explaining the how and the why
Community voice: Help manage our community presence, surface insights back to product and engineering, be the bridge between developers building with agents and our internal teams
Qualification
Required
Use agentic coding tools daily. Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, GitHub Copilot—you don't just know about them, you build with them. You can explain tool calling, MCP, and how agents connect to systems
Ship fast and scrappy. You're comfortable with daily demos that aren't perfect. You know the difference between 'good enough to ship' and 'will never ship.'
Have built community from scratch. You've launched a meetup, energized a subreddit, or created momentum around a new idea without a playbook or big budget
Thrive in person. You light up on stage, at meetups, at hackathons. You can adapt on the fly, handle logistics, and create energy in a room
Code comfortably in Python, Go, or JavaScript (and ideally SQL/Postgres). You can build the demos you dream up
Believe agents are the new developers and want to help define what infrastructure for them looks like. This isn't academic—you see it happening
Have 5+ years in developer advocacy or engineering - and have participated in communities
Want strategic influence. You're excited to co-write the playbook with leadership, not just execute someone else's
