Job Description
At Trunk, our mission is to help teams create high-quality software quickly. We've helped engineerings teams at: Google X, Zillow, and Brex to understand why their builds fail, which tests are flaky, and how to ship code faster without sacrificing reliability. AI has made writing code 10x faster, but shipping is still painfully slow. The bottleneck has shifted downstream - to merge conflicts, flaky tests, inconsistent code quality, and dozens of other frictions that drain productivity and morale. Engineering teams that can stay focused on designing, implementing, and delivering software will build magical, high-quality projects - and they'll be happier doing it. We're building a CI Reliability Platform that empowers teams to land code faster and develop happier.
Our founders launched Trunk in 2021 after designing, delivering, and scaling software at Uber, Google, YouTube, and Microsoft. We raised a $25M Series A led by Initialized Capital (Garry Tan) and a16z (Peter Levine), with investments from Haystack Ventures, Garage VC, and the founders of GitHub (Tom Preston-Werner), Apollo GraphQL (Geoff Schmidt), Algolia (Nicolas Dessaigne), and Peopl.ai (Oleg Rogynsky).
We're looking for a Senior Developer Advocate to own developer awareness and engagement—driving top-of-funnel metrics that convert to pipeline. You'll be the face of Trunk in developer communities, on conference stages, and across content channels. You won't just create content; you'll measure what drives demos and optimize relentlessly. CI reliability is an emerging category without an established playbook—you'll help define how developers discover and talk about it.
You have one strategic objective: drive developer awareness. The responsibilities below reflect our current thinking - but we expect you to challenge, refine, and evolve these tactics as you learn what resonates. What matters is developer reach and interest; how you get there is yours to shape.
