Developer Relations And Marketing Engineer

Currents is a profitable, engineering-focused company that provides a CI test orchestration and analytics platform for Playwright. They are seeking a Developer Relations and Marketing Engineer to create technical content and help engineers discover and adopt their product, while collaborating closely with customers and the internal team.

Responsibilities:

• Create technical content that QA, SDET and platform engineers actually want to read: tutorials, deep-dives on CI and Playwright internals, comparisons, CI/CD recipes, debugging guides, and post-mortem-style engineering stories
• Build, maintain and improve our documentation, tutorials, examples, demo application, benchmarks, demo applications, sample repositories, integrations, and code that proves Currents works for real test suites in real CI pipelines
• Collaborate with our power users, surface insights back to the product team, and turn power users into advocates
• Partner with the founder on customer conversations — qualifying discovery calls, technical demos, and the occasional "let me jump in and help you debug this flaky test" moment
• Collaborate with the founder, growth lead and engineering team on product, positioning, roadmap and overall company direction
• Educate, collaborate with educators and build materials to empower our customers and community
• Own the and operate Currents public presence in the broader community
• Use AI tools such as Claude and Cursor aggressively to multiply your output and quality across writing, code samples, video editing, and research. We expect this. We don't tolerate slop
• Measure what's working. Report on funnel metrics, content performance, community growth, and pipeline contribution. Iterate accordingly

Requirements:

• A DevRel, QA, SDET, Platform Engineer, Solutions Engineer, Marketing or Sales specialist with background in deploying, improving or reviewing devtools
• Four or more years of hands-on experience
• Strong working knowledge of modern web development technologies
• Familiarity and interest in devtool in hybrid areas like CI, devops, frontend development, testing, observability
• Comfort in a terminal, reading other people's test suites, and setting up local development environments
• Familiarity with CI platforms such as GitHub Actions, CircleCI, GitLab CI, or Buildkite
• Fluent use of AI tools in your day-to-day workflow
• A public portfolio of technical content
• Near-native, idiomatic English in both writing and speech
• Comfort on camera and on calls
• Working hours that overlap meaningfully with Vancouver (Pacific Time)
• Self-directed, comfortable owning outcomes without heavy oversight, and able to prioritize ruthlessly across content, community, and customer work
• Prior DevRel, technical writing, or developer marketing experience
• Experience with sales-adjacent work such as customer discovery, technical demos, or partner enablement
• Contributions to Playwright, or adjacent OSS testing tools
