Job Description

We’re looking for a Developer Relations Lead to become the trusted voice of developer education for OpenRouter. You will be the person developers think of when they think about learning how to integrate with OpenRouter and how to design, evaluate, and operate multi-model AI systems in production. You are a developer first. You understand AI infrastructure deeply, you’ve built with LLMs, and you’re fluent in the tradeoffs developers face when choosing models, architectures, and tooling. You will build and scale OpenRouter’s developer education presence across YouTube, Twitter/X, Discord, Reddit, and other community channels—helping developers make better architectural decisions and use OpenRouter effectively. This is a hands-on, founding DevRel role. In year one, you will be the primary creator and community presence, with the opportunity to shape how the function scales over time. This role is not about selling. It is about education, community trust, and establishing OpenRouter as the default learning resource for AI builders.

Job Responsibility

  • Define and execute OpenRouter’s developer education strategy across YouTube, Twitter/X, Discord, Reddit, and other community channels
  • Create high-quality tutorials, videos, guides, code examples, and reference architectures focused on real production use cases
  • Be deeply present in developer communities and OpenRouter’s Discord—answering questions, spotting patterns, and building trust
  • Synthesize developer feedback into actionable insights for product and engineering teams
  • Represent OpenRouter publicly through talks, writing, and community discussions on AI architecture and multi-model systems
  • Partner with Product Marketing, Engineering, and Support to ensure educational content is accurate, discoverable, and aligned

Requirements

  • 5+ years of experience in developer relations, developer education, or a closely related technical role
  • Experience at a developer tools company, infrastructure platform, or API-first product
  • Proven track record creating technical educational content that drives real developer adoption
  • Deep hands-on understanding of AI/ML, LLMs, APIs, and modern developer workflows
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills
  • able to explain complex systems clearly
  • Comfort with public speaking and representing a company in technical forums and events
  • Self-directed and entrepreneurial
  • able to define problems, identify leverage, and execute independently
  • Comfortable being publicly visible and camera-ready as a representative of OpenRouter

Nice to have

  • Experience building or scaling developer communities
  • Background running workshops, hackathons, or structured education programs
  • Familiarity with OpenRouter or public writing/speaking on multi-model AI approaches
  • Experience with video production, streaming, or multimedia technical content

What we offer

  • Work at the center of the AI infrastructure stack as enterprises define how they adopt LLMs
  • High ownership and autonomy to define how developer education and community scale
  • Opportunity to shape a foundational function at a fast-growing company
  • Fully remote team with a culture of autonomy and trust
  • Competitive compensation, including base salary and equity
