Job description
We are an infrastructure company and developers are our core users. As a Developer Advocate, you'll be the public voice of Kernel for developers: creating content, engaging with the community, and bringing insights back to our product and engineering teams. You'll help define how builders learn about browser infrastructure, adopt Kernel, and push the frontier of what AI agents can do on the live Web.

- Build OSS tools, libraries, and integrations that make Kernel's developer experience more powerful and easier to use
- Create high-quality tutorials, guides, and demos showcasing Kernel's core and emerging capabilities
- Iterate on Kernel's developer documentation as a first-class product surface
- Engage with our community on GitHub/Slack/Discord/Twitter and in-person events, answering questions and amplifying cool projects
- Contribute to Kernel's technical blog, developing content that educates, inspires, and grows developer adoption
Requirements
- Hands-on familiarity with generative AI, especially agents, MCP, and Kernel
- Strong technical foundation in software engineering or applied AI. You're comfortable building code samples, demos, and lightweight apps
- Developer empathy: you know what excites them, what annoys them, and how to speak their language (our inspirations: Modal, Supabase, PlanetScale)
- Skilled communication abilities with a clear, engaging style across writing, video, and live presentations
- Curiosity, high-agency, and a genuine passion to build something that delights software engineers
