Wanna #getfedihired ?
#Grafana always has open positions at https://grafana.com/about/careers/ - we never did layoffs, we never stopped hiring.
We're looking for roughly one #devadvocate per quarter. You get to treat the #community right, work on and with interesting technology, and can work with me
It's fully #remotework, and you get to travel to and speak at as many conferences as you get accepted to
Bonus points if you speak #golang and/or #react
Questions? Feel free to poke
@RichiH I'm looking for a change in my career (DevOps/infrastructure). A dev advocate role sounds appealing but could you weigh in on:
1. How does one get a sense of whether this type of work would be a good fit and what it involves?
2. How does one "get into" this type of role? Is it expected that the "ideal candidate" would already have some kind of community presence and/or have created some sort of content?
@garettmd if public speaking, writing docs, recording videos, helping users, or generally supporting people sounds like an interesting mix it's worth a shot.
Community experience is a big plus, but not a hard requirement. Sometimes people pivot, and we know not everyone had the chance to work on this before.
