Role Overview

Creating regular written and video content covering API management, observability, AI/API topics, and real customer implementation experiences
Attending and speaking at developer meetups and community events across Western Europe (targeting weekly or bi-weekly)
Building and maintaining technical documentation that developers actually want to read
Covering ecosystem integrations and how-tos: EKS setup, Grafana optimisation, OpenTelemetry, and more
Engaging authentically with developer communities online and in person
Feeding community insight back into product and marketing teams

Requirements

Experience

A computer science degree or equivalent technical background (you don't need to be a senior engineer, but you need to be able to read code, understand architecture, and get your hands dirty)
Some experience creating content – writing, video, talks, or a combination – even if it's personal projects or university work
Comfort speaking to small groups; meetups and community events should excite you, not fill you with dread
Genuine curiosity about the API and infrastructure space

Skills and attributes

Technical aptitude – you can learn fast, explain clearly, and go deep when needed
A creator's instinct – you want to make things and put them out into the world
Authentic communication style – people trust you because you're real, not polished
Comfortable with travel across Western Europe as a regular part of the role
Hustle, self-directed, and energised by a small team environment
Passion for the AI/API space and where it's heading
AI-native. Uses AI hourly, if not daily, but knows the difference between AI-assisted and AI slop.

Nice to have:

Existing presence in developer communities (blog, YouTube, GitHub, conference talks)
Hands-on experience with Kubernetes, observability tooling, or CI/CD pipelines
Familiarity with API management concepts

Tech Stack

Grafana
Kubernetes

Our values tell the story of Tyk

here’s how:
It’s ok to screw up!

We’ve found that it’s often the ‘stupid’ or unexpected ideas that turn out to be the successful ones

so try it, at least we can say we have!
The only stupid idea, is the untested one!

It’s in our DNA

starting a business with founders 12 hours apart, giving our gateway away for free
sure, we did that, and we’d do it again!
Trust starts with you
make it count!

Trust is a two-way street

instil it from day one!
Assume best intent!

We have each other’s back

we’re all on the same team. Think before you speak or act.
Make things better!

Always try to leave things better than when you found them

change is constant, inevitable and embraced! Be that change we want to see.
