Developer Relations Engineer (Video & Demos)

San Francisco
Full-time
Permanent employee

Job Description

 

The role

You'll own how developers discover, understand, and fall in love with Didit. That means turning a powerful-but-deep platform into videos people actually watch, demos people actually clone, docs people actually finish, and webinars people actually attend.

This is a builder's DevRel role, not a conference-circuit one. You'll spend most of your time with a code editor and a screen recorder open — shipping the kind of content you'd want to find when you're integrating an API at 11pm.

What you'll do

  • Produce product videos. Screen-recorded walkthroughs, "build a KYC flow in 5 minutes" explainers, feature launches, and short-form clips. You write the script, build the demo, record the screen, and narrate it in crisp English.
  • Build demos for every industry. Reference integrations for fintech onboarding, crypto on/off-ramp KYC + wallet screening, marketplace seller verification, and iGaming age-gating — runnable repos people can fork.
  • Run webinars and live streams. Monthly module deep-dives, "office hours," and partner co-webinars. You host, demo live, and field developer questions without a net.
  • Improve the technical docs. Own the developer-facing surface at docs.didit.me — quickstarts, SDK guides, API references, and copy-pasteable code that actually runs. Close the gap between "the API can do this" and "the docs show you how."
  • Write and improve technical blogs. Integration tutorials, architecture deep-dives, "how we built X," and use-case walkthroughs that rank on Google and earn developer trust.
  • Be the developer's voice internally. Sit between developers and our product/engineering teams. Turn the friction you hit on camera into product and docs improvements.

What we're looking for

This is a hard requirement filter, so please read carefully:

  • Perfect, native-level English — written and spoken. You'll be the voice of Didit on camera and in writing.
  • A strong public portfolio with a lot of YouTube developer videos. We want to see you explaining products, building with APIs, and teaching — on camera, at volume. A link to your channel is the single most important part of your application.
  • You can actually code. Comfortable integrating REST APIs, reading SDK source, and building runnable demos in at least one of JavaScript/TypeScript, Python, or a mobile stack. You don't need to be a staff engineer — you need to ship working demos and read docs critically.
  • You're a clear technical writer. You can take a dense API and produce a quickstart a stranger finishes without getting stuck.
  • You're self-directed. You'll own the content engine; we'll give you the product, the budget, and the autonomy.

Nice to have

  • Experience in fintech, crypto/Web3, marketplaces, or iGaming.
  • Familiarity with identity/KYC/AML, compliance, or fraud concepts.
  • A following you've built yourself, or prior DevRel / developer-advocate / developer-educator experience.
  • Comfort with short-form (YouTube Shorts, TikTok, X) in addition to long-form.
  • Basic video editing chops (you don't need to be an editor — we'll support you — but you should be dangerous in a timeline).

What we offer

  • In-office in San Francisco or Barcelona — this is an in-person role. The energy of building together early matters to us, and you'll sit with the product and engineering teams whose work you're taking to the world.
  • Gear & creator budget — the camera, mic, lighting, and software you need to make great video.
  • Optional conference & travel budget — this is a builder's role first, but if you want to speak at or attend events, we'll fund it.
  • Real ownership — you're early on a function that will define how the developer world meets Didit, in a Y-Combinator-backed company used by 2,000+ companies.

We'll discuss compensation directly during the process.


About us

Didit is infrastructure for identity and fraud. We give companies one API to authenticate, verify, and monitor users and businesses — including KYC, KYB, biometric liveness, AML screening, transaction monitoring, and wallet screening — all composable into any workflow and live in minutes.

We’re the only identity provider formally attested by an EU member-state government as safer than in-person verification. We offer transparent pricing, 500 free checks per month, and global coverage across 220+ countries, 14,000+ document types, and 48+ languages.

Backed by Y Combinator, we’re a small, fast-moving team building the identity and fraud layer for the internet. If you want to ship products used by millions and own meaningful scope from day one, we’d love to hear from you.
