APPLYING TO RENDER We're seeking candidates who possess high integrity, humility, and an insatiable drive to learn.
At Render, we’re building the modern cloud platform for developers creating AI-native, full-stack, multi-service applications. Our mission is to eliminate the tradeoff between the power of hyperscalers and the simplicity of developer-friendly platforms—so teams can ship fast, scale reliably, and focus on their product, not infrastructure.
Unlike complex hyperscalers or ephemeral edge/serverless solutions, Render offers a developer-first experience with persistent compute, dynamic autoscaling, built-in orchestration, and observability, allowing teams to launch, scale, and manage real-world applications without writing infrastructure code or managing servers. Whether you're building LLM-powered applications, scalable SaaS products, or async processing pipelines, Render empowers teams to move fast and scale confidently from MVP to millions of users.
Our platform is trusted by over 7 million developers worldwide and continues to grow rapidly. In February 2026, we raised an additional $100M in Series C financing, bringing our total funding to $260M, to accelerate our vision of making cloud infrastructure both powerful and intuitive—designed for the speed of modern AI development.
We’re a diverse and talented team that values craft, velocity, and user experience. If you’re excited to help shape the future of the intelligent cloud and empower developers everywhere, we’d love to hear from you.
APPLYING TO RENDER
We're seeking candidates who possess high integrity, humility, and an insatiable drive to learn. Through reasoned discussions and continuous feedback, we strive to improve both individually and collectively. We foster an environment of mutual trust and respect, empowering effective debate to achieve the best outcomes for our customers and team.
We especially encourage members of underrepresented groups in the tech community to apply and understand that not all successful candidates will meet each requirement listed.
Our interview process is unique to each role, and we value the candidate experience just as much as our customer experience. We hope your conversations with us reflect a thoughtful process that is illuminative, enjoyable, and respectful of your time.
More than 7 million developers use Render, and most of them found us through other developers. We're building a team to further drive this developer led growth. As our first Developer Programs Lead, you'll own Render's social presence, developer community, developer programs, and developer voice.
You'll set the strategy across all four areas, decide where to hire, where to use agencies or creators, and in what order.
You'll report to Raph Terrier, Head of Developer Experience. The DX team owns content: tutorials, videos, docs, and articles. Your team owns how Render sounds, how that content reaches developers, and the programs and community around it. You'll also work closely with our VP of Marketing, product marketing, and product.
Build and lead the team
Set the strategy and goals for social, community, developer programs, and developer brand.
Decide what to build first, what to hand to agencies or contractors, and when to hire. Then hire and manage the team.
Report on what's working to Developer Experience and Marketing leadership, and change course when something isn't.
Own Social
Run Render's accounts on X, LinkedIn, and Reddit yourself at first. Write the posts, reply to developers, and join the conversations where Render has something useful to say.
Set the channel strategy: where we show up, how often, and what we measure.
Handle the hard moments in public, including outages, pricing changes, and sharp criticism, with the right people inside Render.
Grow our Developer Community
Build Render's presence in Discord, Reddit, and the other places developers gather, with the DX team.
Run AMAs, livestreams, and community events with DX.
Bring what you hear from developers back to Product and Engineering.
Run developer programs
Build programs that grow Render's reach through other people: developer creators, ambassadors, referrals, speaking, and employee advocacy.
Own the developer voice
Define Render's voice and style for developers, and write it down so engineers, product managers, and marketers sound like Render when they write or post.
Work with the VP of Marketing and product marketing on Render's external narrative and how each launch shows up in public.
7+ years across social, community, developer marketing, or brand, including time building or leading a function at a growing company.
Experience hiring and leading a team, or building a function from early stage with a clear plan for who to add and when.
Recent hands-on ownership of a company's social channels. You can show us accounts you ran and copy you wrote.
Experience building a developer community or program, with results you can explain.
Experience shaping a brand voice, and examples of how it changed the way a company sounded.
Fluency with developer audiences and enough technical comfort to write accurately about infrastructure, with the judgment to check with an engineer first.
You work without a playbook and with little direction across Marketing, Product, and Engineering.
Steady judgment when something goes wrong in public.
NICE-TO-HAVES
Experience at a developer tools, cloud, or infrastructure company.
You've run a creator, influencer, or ambassador program.
An active personal presence on X, LinkedIn, YouTube, or another platform developers use.
Comfort on camera or behind a mic.
If this role excites you but you don’t meet every single requirement, we’d still love to hear from you—your unique experience might be just what we need.
4 weeks of paid vacation.
14 weeks of fully paid parental leave for all parents to bond with a newly born, adopted, or fostered child. We will also work with you to create a supportive plan of return.
Long-term disability, life insurance, and 401K plans.
