About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Start from the pain point, not the product: pick the DevOps/developer problems teams hit most often, then build the working solution and the narrative around it, before deciding what format it becomes
Build forkable, production-realistic pipeline templates and code samples (CI, CD, GitOps, feature flags) that developers can clone and adapt directly, not superficial demos
Own the "zero to first pipeline run" self-serve paths for our flagship products, and validate them by having real, unassisted users run through them
Record short technical walkthroughs and live coding demos of real CI/CD workflows on Harness
Own the example-repo strategy: the canonical, maintained source of truth
Keep every sample and tutorial working as the product changes, i.e., stale examples cost more trust than no examples
Show up in developer communities (GitHub Discussions, Discord, relevant subreddits) and understand developer pain points and answer real questions first, turn the best ones into content second
Be the technical sign-off on content produced elsewhere on the team. If a use case or demo is wrong, you're the one who catches it before it publishes

Requirements

What you’ll need

Real, hands-on CI/CD experience: you've built and maintained pipelines in production, not just used one someone else configured
Comfortable writing YAML, scripting (Bash/Python/Go), and working across git, containers/Kubernetes, and common CI/CD tooling (Jenkins, ArgoCD, or similar), familiarity with GitOps/progressive delivery, SAST/SCA, or DORA metrics
Background as a software engineer or DevOps practitioner: someone who's shipped, not just covered the space
Can write clearly for other engineers: a tutorial, not just code comments
Comfortable on camera or mic for short technical content: we'll coach delivery; the technical judgment has to already be there
Self-directed: you spot the gap in self-serve content and build the fix without waiting on a brief
Direct experience with Harness, or a comparable platform (Nice to have)
An existing presence in a developer community, or a personal technical content portfolio (Nice to have)
