Full Job Description

ABOUT FRACTIONAL AI How do you turn a decades-old dataset into an industry-leading medical coding agent? Teach an AI receptionist to book appointments in Spanish? Automatically generate working data connectors from API docs? Build agents that write, test, and deploy their own software packages? Fractional AI is focused on putting frontier AI to work. We're a group of veteran Silicon Valley builders who care deeply about getting complex AI systems built right, with strong conviction about what makes them succeed. We're backed by Anthropic, Blackstone, Hellman & Friedman, Goldman Sachs, General Atlantic, Leonard Green & Partners, Apollo Global Management, GIC, and Sequoia Capital. THE ROLE Fractional AI is widely regarded by practitioners as one of the best teams at AI implementation in complex scenarios. Our brand awareness among top-tier engineers hasn't kept pace with our output. On May 20, we became the founding team of Anthropic's new AI Services Business and it's the right moment to bring in our first Developer Relations Engineer to build a lasting engineering brand.

You're not a marketer who covers engineering. You're an engineer who happens to be exceptional at telling the story of the craft. WHAT YOU'LL DO - Write and publish technical content — blog posts, project teardowns, HN writeups — drawn from what the team is actually building - Build Fractional's presence on channels where strong engineers spend time: Hacker News, technical podcasts, conferences, and niche communities - Run high-signal community touchpoints: dinners, workshops, small events where top engineers encounter Fractional in a non-transactional context - Drive open source contributions and external projects that reflect Fractional's engineering caliber - Build partnerships with complem
