Developer Relations - Education Lead

Tasks

The Role:

We are hiring a DevRel Engineer - Education Lead to scale how developers learn, build, and succeed on Hedera. As the Hedera ecosystem grows, we are evolving from individual tutorials and resources to structured, outcome-driven learning experiences that guide developers from first interaction to production deployment.

This role exists to ensure that developer education becomes a consistent, high-impact growth lever. It’s accelerating onboarding, deepening engagement, and increasing the number of developers successfully building on testnet and mainnet.

In this role, you will:

• Own the end-to-end developer education strategy, designing structured learning paths that take developers from zero to production-ready
• Build high-quality technical learning experiences (tutorials, courses, demos, code samples) that accelerate developer onboarding and activation
• Ship hands-on educational content consistently across formats (written, video, interactive) with a clear content cadence
• Create real, working applications and templates that serve as both learning tools and reusable developer assets
• Run workshops, webinars, and live coding sessions to engage and activate developers across skill levels
• Define and track education metrics (completion, activation, progression to mainnet) and iterate based on data
• Partner cross-functionally with engineering, product, marketing, and community to align education with ecosystem priorities

What success looks like in 6-12 months:

• A structured learning path is live and actively used, with clear learning outcomes and measurable completion + activation rates
• Education-driven activation metrics are defined, tracked, and improved (e.g., 7-day activation, progression to mainnet)
• A consistent content engine is operating (2–4 high-quality pieces per month across formats)
• At least one certification or credentialing initiative is launched or fully scoped with a platform partner
• Developer onboarding shifts from ad hoc documentation to guided, outcome-driven learning journeys

Requirements

What you bring:

• Strong hands-on engineering ability (JavaScript, Python, and/or Java). You can build and ship real applications
• Proven experience designing structured learning programs (courses, learning paths, certifications, or similar)
• Ability to translate complex technical concepts into clear, engaging learning experiences
• Demonstrated track record of shipping technical content across formats (written + video)
• High ownership and autonomy. You can set direction and execute in a fast-moving, distributed environment
• Deep understanding of how developers learn (project-based learning, hands-on labs, outcome-driven design)
• Experience with developer education platforms or tooling (LMS, YouTube, interactive environments, course platforms)
• Ability to use data to inform content strategy (completion rates, engagement, activation metrics)
• Experience engaging developers through workshops, hackathons, or live sessions

Nice to haves:

• Experience with web3 / EVM ecosystems (smart contracts, dApps, Hardhat, Foundry, ethers.js)
• Familiarity with Hedera, hashgraph concepts, or related SDKs
• Experience building certification programs or credentialing systems
• Experience using AI tools for content creation or developer productivity
