Requirements


We are looking for a Developer Advocate who can lead the construction of crystal-clear and intuitive onboarding processes, documentation, and a proactive support ecosystem. This person is capable of learning the evolving needs of developers, leading a team that implements solutions, and presenting emerging product requirements & solutions to executives.


We need someone with a hacker mentality. What does that mean? It means you can listen to developers, ask smart questions, and experiment. You see Axelar through the eyes of a developer who is trying to use it to build interoperability into a decentralized application or platform. You go beyond rote, discovering for yourself the clearest and best path, and illuminating it for other developers.


What you will need:



  • React, Web3JS or EthersJS experience or projects.

  • Experience with Typescript and/or GraphQL.

  • Demonstrated written and spoken communication abilities.


About you:



  • You have experience working as a developer or an engineer.

  • You have Web3 technical knowledge, but mainly you have enthusiasm for decentralized systems, demonstrated by work you’ve done to experiment and learn.

  • You communicate crisply when writing or editing documentation, recording a demo video, presenting on stage, and posting in message groups.

  • You are a good networker. You enjoy creating and maintaining strong, friendly professional relationships, both online and IRL.

  • You’re open to collaborating with internal and external stakeholders, flourishing in a distributed environment.

  • You enjoy being hands-on, a creative self-starter who thrives well in ambiguity.

  • A problem-solver at heart who can envision successful outcomes.


Benefits


What’s in it for you:



  • Autonomous, distributed environment with the opportunity to work collaboratively in a diverse team across the world.

  • The scope to contribute to high impact work and really make a difference in a decentralized protocol.

  • Chance to really challenge yourself whilst learning heaps of stuff in the process.

  • Unlimited time off throughout the year to rest and recharge.

  • Competitive compensation with stock options, experiencing growth from the initial phase.
