About the role

Own Windmill's growth - from developer awareness to self-serve activation to expansion. So far, 3M ARR has been built with zero outbound and reasonable marketing efforts - imagine what a dedicated growth person could do. This is a broad, high-autonomy role spanning developer marketing, community, content, and product-led growth.

• Content & developer marketing: write technical content (tutorials, comparisons, case studies) that developers actually want to read. SEO, social, community channels.
• Community: grow and engage the open-source community - Discord, GitHub, forums. Surface feedback, spotlight contributors.

• Analytics: measure what works - traffic, signups, activation, expansion. Data-driven iteration.

• you may not write production code, but you understand developer tools deeply, learn fast, and can credibly engage a technical audience.

• Proven devtool growth experience is strongly preferred. You've grown awareness,...
