Technical Content Engineer - Trigger.dev

About Trigger.dev

Trigger.dev is the platform for running reliable AI agents and workflows. Developers use it to build, deploy, and scale production systems with built-in tools for orchestration, scheduling, monitoring, and debugging.

Our Cloud product is a managed service where we deploy our users' code and auto-scale from zero to millions of executions. Today, we serve thousands of teams building AI apps and agents, handling hundreds of millions of executions per month.

About the Position

We're looking for a Technical Content Engineer to help us become top-of-mind for developers building AI agents. This is a hybrid role for someone who actually builds with code and writes for an audience - not a marketer who can read TypeScript, and not an engineer who occasionally blogs, but someone who treats content as a craft and ships it with the same rigour as production code.

You'll own technical content end to end: strategy, production, distribution, and measurement. You'll build with our product, ship things alongside our engineering team, and turn what you learn into blog posts, video, demos, and tweet threads that the AI agent community actually wants to read. You'll also work directly with our founders to help shape and produce content that goes out under their names.

This is a senior IC role. You'll be our first dedicated content hire, so the strategy is yours to define.

What You'll Be Doing

• Producing technical content: Blog posts, tutorials, video, tweet threads, demo apps - whatever format best lands the idea. The bar is content that gets read, shared, and converts developers into users.
• Owning content strategy: Decide what we should write about, which channels we should be on, what success looks like, and how often we should ship.
• Building with the product: Write real TypeScript on top of Trigger.dev - sample apps, integrations, reference implementations.
• Supporting founder content: Work with the team to produce posts, threads, and longer pieces that go out under their own names.
• Measuring and iterating: Set up conversion tracking, run A/B tests on content, and analyze performance.
• Reading the room on our audience: Understand the technical, informal, and irreverent sensibility of the dev tools and AI agent crowd.
• Shaping how we tell our story: Influence our brand voice, messaging, and positioning.

Requirements

• Strong TypeScript skills: Ability to ship real applications, not just snippets. Node/TypeScript stack.
• Track record of external technical content: Public examples of blog posts, tweet threads, YouTube videos, or talks that have performed.
• Fluency with current AI tooling landscape: Experience building with AI agents and understanding where Trigger.dev fits.
• Strategic instincts alongside production chops: Ability to execute content while defining strategy and tracking metrics.
• Strong written communication and high EQ: Ability to work independently, keep the team in the loop, and handle public feedback constructively.

Benefits

• Generous compensation and equity
• Async working environment
• Home office equipment setup
• Generous vacation (25 days plus national holidays, sick leave, and parental leave)
• Annual training and learning budget
• Pension and 401k contributions
