What is a developer community manager?

A Developer Community Manager is a professional responsible for building, nurturing, and engaging with a community of software developers around a product, platform, or organization. They act as a bridge between the company and the developer community, facilitating communication, supporting developers, and organizing events or resources to help the community thrive. Their role often involves creating content, moderating forums, responding to feedback, and fostering collaboration among developers.

How does a developer community manager typically collaborate with product and engineering teams?

A Developer Community Manager often serves as a crucial bridge between the developer community and internal product or engineering teams. They relay feedback, bug reports, and feature requests from users to help shape product roadmaps, while also gathering technical insights from engineers to communicate effectively with the community. Regular sync meetings, collaborative planning sessions, and participation in product launches are common. This cross-functional collaboration ensures that community needs are represented and that technical updates are accurately conveyed.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a developer community manager, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Developer Community Manager, you need a solid understanding of software development concepts, experience in community engagement, and often a relevant degree or technical background. Familiarity with tools like Discord, Slack, GitHub, CRM platforms, and analytics systems is typically required. Outstanding communication, empathy, and problem-solving skills help build trust and foster an inclusive environment among developers. These abilities are crucial for nurturing vibrant communities, supporting product adoption, and driving meaningful engagement.

Job description

Location: Home-based or hybrid within the Eastern time zone, United States
Position Summary:
Developers are building the future of infrastructure, and Bentley wants to make sure they have every reason to build it with us. As our Developer Community Events & Programs Manager, you will own the strategy and execution of Bentley's developer programs portfolio: hackathons, Developer Days, technical workshops, API and SDK experiences, build challenges, and peer-learning events. This is a role for someone who understands developers not as an audience to be marketed to, but as a community to be genuinely invested in.
Working cross-functionally between Corporate Marketing, Developer Relations, Product, and Partner teams, you will serve as the connective tissue that ensures Bentley's developer initiatives are coordinated, visible, and building toward something larger than the sum of their parts. You will establish the playbooks, partnerships, and program models that allow Bentley's developer engagement to scale across products, regions, and communities.
If you are energized by the intersection of technical credibility and creative program design, and you thrive where your work connects directly to platform strategy and business growth, this is a rare opportunity to build something meaningful at a company redefining what engineering software can do for the world.
Responsibilities:
  • Develop and scale programs such as hackathons, Developer Days, technical webinars, API and SDK workshops, live demonstrations, build challenges, office hours, and peer-learning experiences.
  • Serve as the go-to point within Corporate Marketing for developer-focused initiatives, helping connect the work happening across Bentley and ensuring programs are coordinated, visible, and aligned.
  • Work cross-functionally with Product, Developer Relations, technical subject matter experts, Events, Partner Marketing, and other stakeholders who share the goal of reaching and engaging more developers.
  • Translate Bentley's broader developer strategy into compelling programs and experiences that help developers understand what they can build, extend, or enable with Bentley technology.
  • Identify opportunities for Bentley to participate in or partner with external developer communities, industry groups, universities, technology partners, open-source communities, and other relevant organizations.
  • Build and manage relationships with developer community partners, event organizers, technical advocates, influencers, and ecosystem leaders who can help Bentley reach new audiences.
  • Partner with internal and external experts to shape program content, including technical sessions, demonstrations, tutorials, challenges, use cases, and developer learning journeys.
  • Create clear pathways for program participants to continue engaging with Bentley through community spaces, technical resources, future events, partner opportunities, and ongoing learning.
  • Work with Community Platform and Community Experience teams to ensure developer audiences are welcomed into Bentley's broader community and can easily discover relevant programs, resources, and conversations.
  • Capture feedback and insights from developer programs and share them with Product, Engineering, Developer Relations, and other relevant teams to inform future experiences, resources, and platform priorities.
  • Establish repeatable program models, playbooks, and operating processes that enable developer initiatives to scale across products, regions, industries, and audiences.
  • Track participation, engagement, conversion, feedback, partner contribution, and program outcomes to measure the reach and impact of Bentley's developer programs.
  • This is an individual contributor role.
  • Occasional travel required.
  • Requires sitting or standing at will while performing work on a computer (or any other physical requirements).

Qualifications:
  • 5-7 years of experience in developer programs, developer relations, technical community building, ecosystem marketing, technical product marketing, partner programs, or related roles.
  • Demonstrated experience developing or managing developer-focused experiences such as hackathons, Developer Days, workshops, webinars, build challenges, technical events, or learning programs.
  • Strong technical acumen, with the ability to understand and communicate concepts related to APIs, SDKs, developer tools, technical platforms, and developer workflows.
  • Credibility with developer and technical audiences, with the ability to understand their needs and create experiences that are useful, relevant, and engaging.
  • Strong program management skills, including the ability to move from strategy into execution and coordinate multiple programs, stakeholders, timelines, and dependencies.
  • Excellent cross-functional collaboration skills, with experience working across Product, Engineering, Marketing, Community, Events, Partnerships, and external organizations.
  • Experience developing partnerships with developer communities, technology organizations, universities, event organizers, or ecosystem partners.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to translate between technical and non-technical stakeholders and clearly articulate program goals and opportunities.
  • Highly organized, proactive, and comfortable operating across a distributed organization where ownership and activity may sit across several teams.
  • Experience with GitHub, developer portals, community platforms, technical events, open-source ecosystems, or developer-focused communications is preferred.

What Success Looks Like:
  • Bentley has a clear and coordinated portfolio of developer programs that supports its broader developer and platform strategy.
  • Hackathons, Developer Days, webinars, workshops, and other developer experiences become repeatable, scalable, and connected rather than operating as one-off activities.
  • Corporate Marketing has a clear point of contact who understands the developer landscape across Bentley and can bring the right internal stakeholders together around shared opportunities.
  • Bentley reaches and engages more developers through a combination of owned programs, external partnerships, and participation in relevant technical communities.
  • Developers have more opportunities to learn about Bentley technology, experiment with its capabilities, build meaningful solutions, and connect with Bentley experts and peers.
  • Developer programs create sustained engagement by giving participants clear next steps into Bentley's community, resources, programs, and ecosystem.
  • Bentley develops stronger relationships with developer advocates, technical partners, universities, community leaders, and organizations that can extend its reach and credibility.
  • Internal teams gain greater visibility into developer activity, audience needs, program performance, and opportunities for future collaboration.
