* Agency: Everyone should have the capability, freedom, and confidence to bring about changes to our business and product. Organizational processes exist to clearly define our goals, but not restrict how progress is made.
 * Collaboration: Success is defined in various dimensions and no single person can be an expert in all of them. Without valuing the opinions of others, finding compromises, and sharing mutual trust and respect, you cannot arrive at the best possible solution.
 * Open-mindedness: Without asking questions, testing assumptions, and questioning our pre-existing biases we risk operating within an echo-chamber. We celebrate the representation of diverse perspectives and backgrounds as a catalyst for creating an inclusive work environment that everyone can appreciate., As Sr. Developer Advocate you'll collaborate closely with our Lead Developer Advocate to shape advocacy strategy, quarterly priorities, and long-term vision, with a strong focus on the role of authorization in agentic AI.

You'll serve as a conduit of feedback to the Product and Engineering teams by turning external observations into actionable recommendations. You'll engage with developers in physical communities (e.g. KubeCon) and on social media (Reddit, LinkedIn, HackerNews, DevTo)., * The AI portions of our developer advocacy execution, translating high-level strategy into impactful, measurable programs
