DevRel Engineer.
Ship cool things on top of Runflow, bring creators in, drive adoption of the next generation of AI image + video infrastructure.
Runflow is the AI image and video infrastructure layer for the builders shipping production AI experiences. There is a wave of creators, indie hackers, agencies, and small teams figuring out what's now possible with a real generative-media stack underneath them. We want them to find us, try it, ship something, and tell their network.
We're hiring a DevRel Engineer to make that happen. Build the templates and demos that show what's possible. Run the hackathons. Ship daily on Reddit, X, and Discord. Find the creators doing the most interesting work and bring them in.
If you ship publicly already, can build a working prototype solo over a weekend, write well, talk well on camera, and treat audience-building as a craft rather than spam, this is for you.
Quick facts
What you'd ship in your first 6 months.
Concrete, shippable, on the live roadmap. Not hypothetical. We expect every one of these to land.
Ship a library of opinionated templates that show off what Runflow can do
ComfyUI workflows, code starters, demo apps. The kind of templates a creator forks on a Sunday and ships a product on Wednesday. Every one of them lives publicly and is talkable on social.
Run a Runflow hackathon that puts us on the map
Real prizes, real evaluators, real demos at the end. Pre-build the on-ramps so 80% of teams ship something. Get the writeups, get the cross-posts, get the creators we want to work with into the orbit.
Build a daily-shipping cadence on the channels where creators actually live
Reddit, X, Discord. A demo, a thread, a workflow. Daily, not weekly. The compounding effect is the whole game; one viral thing a quarter is the wrong target.
What you'll be doing.
You'll own the full lifecycle, from prototype to production at scale.
Build templates, demos, and prototypes that show what Runflow makes possible
Ship daily on Reddit, X / Twitter, and Discord, the channels where creators live
Run hackathons, creator events, and the supporting comms / prizes / on-ramps
Find the creators doing the most interesting work, bring them into the Runflow orbit
Write the launch posts, the announcements, the changelogs, the demo walkthroughs
Make the launch assets, screenshots, gifs, video walkthroughs, that get the work shared
Bring the field's signal back into the team, what builders ask for, what frustrates them, what they wish existed
Use AI tools fluently, you're shipping fast on your own without an engineering team behind you
About you.
You may be a good fit if…
- You ship publicly and have an audience to show for it (X, Reddit, YouTube, GitHub stars, Substack, anything)
- You can build a working prototype solo over a weekend, you don't need eng help to ship a demo
- You have a feel for what makes things resonate, what makes people share, what makes them try
- You write well, posts and threads come naturally, you don't need a marketer to ghostwrite for you
- You're AI-native, Claude Code / Cursor / ComfyUI in your daily flow, not 'tried it once'
- You treat community as a craft, not a megaphone, you actually engage with what people make
Strong candidates also have…
- Have run a successful hackathon (you've seen what good organisation looks like vs. what bombs)
- Have shipped an OSS project that found real users
- Have grown a Reddit / X / YouTube presence intentionally and can articulate the playbook
- Have built ComfyUI workflows or generative-AI demos that went viral
- Have prior DevRel / community / founding-engineer experience at an infra or dev-tool company
- Comfortable on camera, can edit a Loom into something tight, or have a YouTube presence to show for it (genuinely nice-to-have, not required)
What we're not looking for
A specific number of years. A specific degree. A specific stack. We hire on whether you can ship end-to-end and whether you have taste. Everything else is noise.
What we work with.
Daily build tools
Channels
Shipping surface
Models
Five steps. Decision speed is part of the offer.
We move fast because senior candidates with multiple offers reward the team that respects their time. Whole loop fits in two weeks.
Application submitted
Form, ~5 minWe read every word of every application. No silent rejections, ever.
Take-home challenge
2 hours max, your timeA small, real Runflow problem. We score the prompts and decisions you made as much as the output itself.
30 minutes with the CTO
30 min, liveQuick conversation about your take-home, the team, and how you work day-to-day.
Paid challenge, 2 days
2 days, we pay for your timeA bigger problem we pay you to work through. We care about outcomes, not process. AI tools more than welcome.
Closing interview
90 min, liveCasual chat with the two founders.
Show, don't tell.
We value proof over promises. When you apply, include examples. Things that stand out:
Ready to ship?
Five minutes. We read every word. Yes / no / not-now within 5 business days, always.
Maybe one of these instead.
We hire builders, not roles. If none fit exactly, the open application is at the bottom.
