Coder is an open\-source remote development platform trusted by platform engineers at some of the world’s largest enterprises. As a DevRel Engineer, you’ll shape the experience that helps curious users become active practitioners, contributors, and advocates inside their companies, universities, and home labs. You’ll curate our template registry, improve community docs and guides, show up in Discord and GitHub, and demo Coder online and in person. You’ll work across product, engineering, marketing, and our open\-source community to make every path into Coder clearer, faster, and more useful. Please note that this role is contract\-to\-hire. **What you’ll do here** **Community and feedback loop** A great developer community starts with showing up.

Your role is to keep it healthy, useful, and easy to contribute to. * Curate the registry with a community lens: audit coverage gaps, prioritize what platform engineers need, and keep high\-use templates maintained. * Create and maintain high\-quality first\-party templates for key stacks, including Python, Node, Go, Rust, and Java. * Build reference templates across Docker, Kubernetes, Proxmox, AWS, and bare metal. * Make contributing to the registry easier by improving contributor guides, streamlining reviews, and partnering with engineering on registry server improvements. * Review community pull requests quickly and constructively, with clear feedback, reasonable quality bars, and a bias toward getting good work merged. * Mainta
