Developer Evangelist

Parasail is redefining AI infrastructure by enabling seamless deployment across a distributed network of GPUs, optimizing for cost, performance, and flexibility. Our mission is to empower AI developers with a fast, cost-efficient, and scalable cloud experience—free from vendor lock-in and designed for the next generation of AI workloads.

The Developer Evangelist and Community Advocate will be Parasail’s public technical voice and community catalyst, meeting developers where they are, online and in person. From answering deep-dive questions about model inference on r/LocalLLaMA to demoing live at AI model meetups, you’ll translate complex GPU-hosting concepts into clear, actionable guidance. Your feedback loop with engineering will ensure our platform evolves with real-world needs, while your outreach will grow a vibrant ecosystem around Parasail.

What You’ll Do

• Spot & join the conversation – Actively monitor targeted subreddits, Hacker News threads, Discord servers, and other channels; jump in with helpful, technically sound answers (and tactful Parasail mentions where appropriate).
• Create high-impact content – Draft tutorials, sample repos, blog posts, and short videos that demystify model deployment, cost tuning, and distributed inference on GPUs.
• Cultivate our Discord – Moderate, answer questions, and spark discussions; run AMAs and office hours with our engineers.
• Be on the ground – Represent Parasail at meetups, hackathons, and conferences; give talks, staff booths, and gather use-case intel.
• Build alliances – Form relationships with maintainers of leading OSS AI projects and influential community moderators; explore co-marketing or integration opportunities.
• Channel insights back – Synthesize community feedback and surface common pain points, shaping our product roadmap and documentation.
• Measure & grow – Track engagement metrics (Discord activity, GitHub stars, referral traffic, etc.) to iterate and expand our reach.
  
  

Who You Are

• 3–7 years in developer advocacy, solutions engineering, or a similarly outward-facing technical role.
• Hands-on experience with GPU/ML inference workflows (Kubernetes or similar a plus).
• Proven online presence: you’ve participated responsively and respectfully on Reddit, Hacker News, Twitter/X, or Discord for a technical brand or OSS project.
• Comfortable speaking on stage, writing long-form posts, and distilling advanced topics for audiences ranging from CTOs to hobbyists.
• Prior success growing a Discord or Slack community from the ground up.
• Self-starter who can juggle multiple channels, prioritize community questions, and thrive in fast-moving, ambiguous environments.
