Full Description

At Expo, we build open source tools and services that help developers ship apps faster. A core part of that mission is helping developers learn, stay up to date, and feel confident building with Expo as the platform evolves. We’re looking for a Developer Relations Engineer to join our Developer Success team and lead high-quality video education for Expo. You’ll create content that introduces new features, teaches best practices, and helps developers build better apps—while staying deeply connected to the product and the developer community. Responsibilities As a Developer Relations Engineer, you will: • Create regular video content for the Expo YouTube channel, covering new Expo SDK features, Expo Application Services (EAS), React Native best practices, and common developer workflows. • Plan and execute video content in collaboration with Marketing, Product, and other content creators, aligning releases with product launches, blog posts, and campaigns. • Partner closely with our Documentation Lead to produce companion videos for docs and tutorials. • Expand Expo’s video education footprint—from short-form vertical video to longer-form tutorials and courses. • Participate in live video formats such as livestreams, office hours, and live coding sessions. • Stay closely connected to product teams to understand upcoming work, help shape how it’s presented to users, and relay feedback from the developer community. • Represent Expo through workshops and talks at conferences such as App.js Conf, Chain React, React Native London, and others. • Regularly dogfood Expo tools and workflows to stay current and effective as a developer helping other developers. • Help scale Expo’s video output by coaching teammates on video best practices, tooling, setup, and scripting. • Participate in shared Developer Success responsibilities, including rotating support coverage to stay close to user needs (support inbox, Discord, Reddit, social platforms). Depending on your interests and skills, you may also contribute to: • Documentation and tutorials • Blog posts and additional video content • Developer tooling such as Expo Doctor, internal dev success tools, or other areas of the Expo codebase Qualities that make you a good fit • Experience creating high-quality developer-facing video content, live presentations, or podcasts. • Strong proficiency with video recording, editing, and production tools. • Deep empathy for developers and a strong sense of what helps them feel confident and capable. • Comfort working independently and proposing new ideas to improve how software is built, taught, and shared. • Clear, effective communication across multiple mediums: code, docs, video, live speaking, and writing. • Ability to unblock yourself and others and keep momentum moving. • Experience building and shipping quality Expo, React Native, Android, or iOS apps. • A strong understanding of Expo users’ goals and challenges—and genuine interest in solving them. Why work at Expo Every day, millions of people use apps made with Expo — from public health apps to food delivery apps to dating apps to bitcoin wallets. Great organizations like Brex, Coinbase, Flexport, RBI, SpaceX, and Sweetgreen trust Expo to help them build top-notch application software in record time. When we make improvements to the Expo libraries and tools, hundreds of thousands of developers benefit and build better software faster for millions of their users. Everyone on the Expo team works on something important because we have a small team and we do a lot of things. We strive to create an environment where everyone is set up to do their best work. Each person on the team has a lot of flexibility and autonomy to work the way that works the best for them. Perks and benefits We offer competitive compensation and a supportive environment to help you do your best work: • Compensation: Competitive salary + equity package. • Health & Wellness: Comprehensive healthcare benefits (medical, dental, vision) - U.S. only. • Retirement: 401(k) plan with company matching - U.S. only. • Equipment budget: $6,000 to set up your ideal work setup (laptop, monitor, etc.). • Flexible schedule: We care about outcomes, not 9-to-5 hours.
