Senior Developer Content Advocate, Social & Community (Auth0)

Job Description

Okta is looking for a Senior Developer Advocate to become the voice of Auth0 in the developer community, primarily on X (Twitter), but extending across every platform where developers talk, argue, ship, and share. We don't need someone who can "do social media." We need someone who already lives in it: someone whose timeline is full of framework debates, shipping threads, and hot takes on the latest security disclosure, and who wakes up knowing what developers are talking about before the rest of the company does.

In this role, you will own Auth0's presence in the public developer conversation. You'll engage authentically with developers, amplify what we're building, surface what the community actually cares about, and help us move at the speed of the discourse. You'll turn real-time community signals into action, whether that's a timely thread, a piece of rapid-response content, feedback routed to the product team, or a connection with an influential voice in the ecosystem.

If you've built a following by being genuinely useful and opinionated in developer circles, and you want to do that full-time for one of the most widely-used identity platforms in the world, this is the role.

Core Responsibilities

• Community Listening & Trend Response: Dedicate time to actively monitoring developer conversations on platforms like Twitter/X, Reddit, and Hacker News. You will identify emerging trends in identity/security and mentions of Auth0, converting these insights into immediate opportunities. This could range from drafting a thoughtful reply or a "hot-take" blog post to commissioning a video explainer or routing critical feedback to the Product/Marketing teams.
• Own Auth0's Developer Presence on X and Beyond: Be the primary voice representing Auth0 in real-time developer conversations on X, as well as Reddit, Hacker News, Bluesky, and other platforms where developers gather. Post regularly, engage authentically, and build a consistent presence that developers actually want to follow.
• Turn Social Into a Feedback Channel: Systematically capture developer pain points, feature requests, praise, and criticism from public conversations and route them to Product, Engineering, and Marketing with context. You are the bridge between what developers say in public and what the company does next.
• Create Fast-Cycle, High-Signal Content: Write threads, short posts, quick takes, and lightweight explainers that ride the moment. When a topic is trending, you should be able to ship something valuable within hours, not weeks. Longer-form content (blog posts, video scripts) is secondary but expected when the moment calls for it.
• Collaborate With Internal Teams: Work closely with Product, Engineering, Developer Relations, and Marketing to ensure that what you're seeing externally informs what we build and how we talk about it. Help shape launch strategies, messaging, and positioning based on real community signal.

Minimum Qualifications

• Experience: 4+ years in developer advocacy, developer relations, or a community-facing technical role, with clear evidence of sustained public engagement with developer audiences.
• Established Social Presence: You have an active, authentic presence on X (and ideally other developer platforms). You don't need to be famous, but you should have a track record of engaging meaningfully in technical conversations and a following that reflects that. Share your profile, we will look.
• Technical Credibility: You can hold your own in a conversation about JavaScript/TypeScript frameworks, authentication flows, API design, or web architecture. You don't need to be a senior engineer, but developers should never feel like they
