## Job description

**TL;DR:** We're hiring a DevRel Lead to make White Circle the AI safety platform engineers and researchers actually want to build with. You'll own how we show up to technical audiences: shipping technical content, running hackathons and meetups, launching open-source tools like Halo, and building partnerships across the AI ecosystem.

### About White Circle

[White Circle](http://whitecircle.com) is an AI Safety company building the safety, reliability, and optimization layer for AI systems. At the core of our platform are policies – simple natural-language rules that define what an AI model should and shouldn’t do. We automatically test, enforce, and continuously improve these policies at scale.

-   We’ve recently raised our Series A funding round, taking our total funding to $70M. Our investors include top funds, founders, and senior leaders at OpenAI, Anthropic, HuggingFace, Mistral, DeepMind, Datadog, Sentry, and others
    
-   We process over one hundred million API calls every month
    
-   We fine-tune and train our own LLMs so they run faster and cheaper than any open or proprietary model
    

We’re a small, highly focused team. If you want to work deeply on hard problems, see your work ship to production quickly, and influence how AI safety is actually built – you’re the one we need.

### What you'll do

-   Own White Circle's developer relations: how engineers and AI researchers discover, understand, and adopt what we build
    
-   Lead technical launches for open-source releases and developer tools, like our Halo framework, from narrative and demos through to launch day
    
-   Write and publish technical content: blog posts, tutorials, walkthroughs, demos, and threads on X and LinkedIn
    
-   Organise and run hackathons, meetups, and technical events, mainly in SF and New York
    
-   Build and grow a technical community around our open-source work and platform
    
-   Set up and run technical partnerships and collaborations with AI labs, dev tools companies, and research teams
    
-   Give technical input to promo and product videos, working with our design and creative team on production
    
-   Track what's working (signups, repo stars, views, event turnout, hiring pipeline) and double down on it
    

###   
We're looking for someone who

-   Has a strong technical background as a software engineer, ML engineer, or researcher
    
-   Has worked at a technical product company, ideally in dev tools, infrastructure, databases, or AI
    
-   Has organised hackathons, meetups, or technical events, and can show how they went (turnout, signups, what came out of them)
    
-   Has an engaged following among engineers and/or AI researchers on X, LinkedIn, GitHub, or elsewhere
    
-   Knows the AI tooling landscape well: coding agents, eval frameworks, open-source models, and who is building what
    
-   Can take a complex technical topic and make it compelling for a developer audience without dumbing it down
    
-   Thrives with ownership and moves fast without waiting for direction
    
-   Is based in the US, or able to work US hours. SF or New York is ideal, but we'll consider exceptional candidates anywhere
    
-   Is fluent in English
    

###   
A big plus

-   You've led developer marketing or DevRel for a technical launch that drove real adoption
    
-   You've contributed to or maintained popular open-source projects
    
-   You have existing relationships across the AI research and developer community
    
-   You've worked on or around AI safety, evals, or reliability
    

###   
Compensation & benefits

-   Competitive compensation package, including equity
    
-   Flexible time off
    
-   Health insurance
    
-   Mental health support, including coverage for therapy when you need it
    
-   401(k) retirement plan
    
-   Learning and development support for courses, conferences, and opportunities to grow your skills
    
-   All the hardware, subscriptions, tools, and services you need
    
-   Team off-sites twice a year: we’ve recently been to the Alps, Saint-Tropez, and Marbella
    

###   
Process

1.  Intro call with Talent (25 min)
    
2.  Take-home assignment, with a choice of a walkthrough of one of our public repos or a launch case study on a sample company
    
3.  Technical chat with Head of Design & Head of Applied Research (45 min)
    
4.  Final conversation with CEO & Head of Engineering (45 min)
