Sr. DevRel Engineer (Fractional)

About the Role

Tonic.ai is looking for a fractional Sr. DevRel Engineer to be the technical voice of our Go-To-Market strategy. In this role you will create and scale highly technical content that helps Enterprise engineering leaders discover, understand, and adopt Tonic. You’ll collaborate with Engineering, Product, and Marketing and operate as a hands-on DevRel practitioner building thought-leadership content and technical blogs. This is a part-time role requiring 10-20 hours per week with consistent output and visible impact.

What You’ll Do

Technical Content

Create "Peer-to-Peer" Content: Author sophisticated whitepapers, architectural deep dives, and opinionated blog posts that speak directly to Staff Engineers and VPs of Engineering.

Video & Multimedia: Leverage AI tools to rapidly turn your technical insights into short-form video content for LinkedIn and YouTube that cuts through the noise.

Developer Engagement

Content Distribution & Reach: Share high-impact content across channels developers use (LinkedIn, X, Reddit, YouTube, Discord, GitHub, etc.) to drive authentic distribution and engagement.

Internal Collaboration

Product & Engineering Alignment: Work with Engineering and Product Marketing to understand and translate upcoming capabilities.

Sales & Outreach Review: Review and refine SDR outreach sequences and sales decks to ensure they sound like they were written by an engineer, for an engineer.

What You’ll Bring

Strong technical background, ideally having served as a Staff Engineer, Software Architect, or Technical Lead within an Enterprise environment.

Deep understanding of how technical leaders evaluate software and build internal business cases for new tools.

Proven experience building developer-facing content with a strong narrative arc and technical depth.

A love for technical writing; you enjoy the challenge of translating complex engineering facts into compelling, value-driven stories.

Comfort presenting in webinars, meetups, or videos.

A visible online presence and a track record of engaging with the broader developer community.

Why This Opportunity

This is a chance to join a fast-growing B2B technical SaaS company with strong product-market fit, an experienced team, and backing from tier-one VCs. We are looking for a true technical peer to our audience - someone who can move beyond "marketing fluff" to deliver deep, strategic value.

The work is hands-on, visible, and highly impactful. You will have the autonomy to experiment and see your content directly influence adoption as you help enterprise leaders navigate the complex challenges of data privacy and synthetic data. This is a unique opportunity for a senior engineer or architect to leverage their expertise to shape the narrative for a platform that is fundamentally changing the Enterprise SDLC.
