At Comet, we’re building Opik, the open-source platform for evaluating and improving LLM applications. In just a short time, Opik has become one of the fastest-growing products in the GenAI ecosystem, with thousands of developers using it to bring reliability and trust to their AI apps.

We’re hiring a Developer Relations Lead to join our team. This remote USA based role (West Coast preferred) will be key in driving Opik’s next phase of growth, scaling our community presence, shaping our technical voice, and turning advocacy into adoption.

About the Position: This is a player-coach position. You’ll lead a team of three Developer Advocates, set strategy and KPIs, and align advocacy to business outcomes. At the same time, you’ll stay hands-on: writing content, speaking at events, and building alongside the community.

Your mission: grow Opik’s adoption and engagement.

Responsibilities:

Leadership & Management

  • Manage, mentor, and grow a team of three Developer Advocates dedicated to Opik
  • Define advocacy KPIs alongside the VP of Marketing and CEO, tied directly to Opik’s success (installs, signups, GitHub stars, OSS adoption)
  • Build clear career paths and ensure advocates thrive as technical leaders
  • Align team priorities with Product and Marketing to maximize impact

Player-Coach Contributions

  • Actively create technical content (blog posts, tutorials, videos, conference talks, workshops)
  • Represent Opik at key events, conferences, and meetups in the LLM/AI space
  • Engage daily with our community across GitHub, Slack, and forums
  • Partner with product engineering to channel user feedback into roadmap priorities

Strategy & Growth

  • Develop and execute an advocacy strategy that drives measurable Opik adoption
  • Launch scalable programs (hackathons, community contributions, partnerships, etc.)
  • Measure and report on how advocacy contributes to Opik’s overall growth loops

Qualifications:

  • Proven leadership experience running Developer Advocate, DevRel, or Community Engineering teams
  • A track record of hands-on advocacy, content creation, public speaking, and community engagement
  • Strong ability to set, track, and connect KPIs (e.g., GitHub stars, installs, signups) to real growth
  • Technical credibility with developers (background in LLMs (GenAI) and open source)
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills across Product, Marketing, and Sales
  • A growth mindset and passion for building developer communities around open source

What we offer:

  • Impact: Own and scale developer advocacy for one of the fastest-growing open-source projects in AI
  • Visibility: Be the technical voice of Opik to thousands of developers worldwide
  • Leadership: Build and lead a high-performing advocacy team in a pivotal growth stage
  • Competitive base salary, based on proven experience, skills and location
  • Competitive benefits package
  • Flexible working hours and remote work options
  • Opportunities for professional growth and development
  • A collaborative and innovative work environment
  • The chance to work with cutting-edge technologies and projects
  • This role will be located remotely in the USA (West Coast preferable), working with a global team (large presence in the US, Tel Aviv and Europe), some flexibility with work hours is required
