Weekend Hacker News Jobs (NOW HIRING)

About Sent
Sent is an infrastructure for sending A2P messages across SMS, WhatsApp, and RCS through a single unified API. Our intelligent routing model automates channel selection based on deliverability and cost, ensuring lower cost and global reach without any channel-specific integrations.
We've raised over $5M in Seed funding backed by Companyon Ventures, Bessemer Venture Partners, UIF, and CEAS Investments. We're hiring to build the best infrastructure to replace multi-channel messaging stacks.
The Role
We're hiring a Developer Advocate to be the technical voice of Sent on the internet. This isn't a customer-facing AM role and it isn't a pre-sales engineer role. The job is to produce a steady stream of technical content, code, demos, posts, videos, talks, and to engage with developers where they actually hang out: Hacker News, X, Reddit, Discord servers, GitHub.
You'll write the tutorial that ranks for "how to send WhatsApp from Node.js." You'll build the demo that gets passed around in a Slack channel. You'll be in the comments when someone asks how Sent compares to Twilio, and you'll have a useful answer ready.
What you'll do

• Publish technical content on a regular cadence: tutorials, comparison posts, deep dives, working demos, sample apps
• Maintain a strong personal presence on X and LinkedIn, building an audience of developers who care about messaging infrastructure
• Show up at developer conferences and meetups, sometimes speaking, sometimes running a booth, sometimes both
• Own the SDK and quickstart developer experience end to end, and feed friction back to engineering
• Partner with marketing on campaigns targeting Twilio and other incumbents
• Run office hours, livestreams, or whatever format works to get builders engaged with the product

What you bring

• 4+ years working as a developer, with at least 1-2 of those years in DevRel, developer marketing, or as a heavily public technical IC
• You ship code. You can build a working integration in a weekend and write up how you did it on Monday
• A real portfolio of public technical content: blog posts, repos, talks, videos, or a following you've built yourself
• Strong writing. You can explain a webhook signature flow without making the reader want to die
• Comfort with messaging, telecom, or API infrastructure is a plus but not required

Our Commitment to You

• Meaningful equity with high growth potential
• Top-tier medical, dental, vision fully covered
• 401(k) with 100% match up to 4%
• Unlimited PTO
• Beautiful NYC workspace with daily meals and unlimited snacks
• New MacBook Pro + Apple Studio Display
• Fully comped Wellhub Gold or Equinox membership
