What Is The Role : Developers and community matter. Our users and contributors have helped ensure that the Elastic Stack (including Elasticsearch, Kibana, Beats, and Logstash) is more than just code — they are open source projects that people love to use. Your mission: educate, inspire and connect with the developer community by running engaging social media channels. You'll be in charge of X, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Threads and BlueSky. Driving video creation for YouTube will be a significant part of your role, as that content will feed the other channels as well.

Own the content calendar and posting schedule across: X, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Threads and BlueSky. Actively engage with developers and creators on social platforms — responding, amplifying, and fueling conversations that build community. Define and track success metrics (reach, engagement, sentiment, and community growth). Review performance analytics to come up with new insights and opportunities for optimization. Regularly report on these to collaborators, sharing lessons learned and next experiments. What You Bring : 4+ years of experience in social media and content strategy in B2B tech with developer audiences. A strong portfolio of high-impact social campaigns successfully led in the past, particularly on technical topics. Deep knowledge of algorithms, formats, and guidelines on X, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Threads and BlueSky. Experience developing video creation strategies and working with YouTube, and basic video editing capabilities. Deep understanding of social media trends and audience engagement strategies. Experience working with technical product teams or developer audiences, and translating that into clear, engaging storytelling. Excellent writing, editing, and content development skills. Fluent English is required. Strong analytical skills and a good grasp of SEO and AIO foundations. Curiosity and adaptability to quickly pick up new tools and topics. Bonus Points : Video editing experience. Graphic design experience. Additional Information - We Take Care of Our People As a distributed company, diversity drives our identity.
