Developer Relations Engineer (Open Source / MCP)
About the role
About Manufact
Manufact (formerly mcp-use) builds the open-source SDKs and cloud infrastructure powering the Model Context Protocol (MCP) ecosystem. Our SDKs are used by thousands of developers to build MCP servers, agents, and ChatGPT Apps. We are YC S25, founder-stage, and moving fast.
We are hiring a Developer Relations Engineer in San Francisco to ship demos every day, speak at events, run partnerships with the rest of the dev tools world, and write the content that makes developers fall in love with mcp-use.
What you will own
Daily demos
Ship a cool demo every single day. Deep dives on features of the mcp-use SDK, walkthroughs of new product surfaces, short videos, working repos, X threads, GIFs. The kind of content that makes a developer stop scrolling and clone the repo. You will be the person who shows the world what mcp-use can actually do.
Speaking and events
Be on stage. Conferences, meetups, hackathons, podcasts, livestreams. AI Engineer Summit, MCP-themed events, partner workshops, university talks. We expect you to be a regular speaker at the events where MCP and AI builders show up, and to know everyone worth knowing in that scene.
Partnerships and ecosystem coordination
Run our collaborations with other dev tools companies. Cursor, Anthropic, OpenAI, Vercel, Zed, Replit, Linear, Stripe, every adjacent SDK and AI tool we should be cross-promoting with. You will coordinate joint demos, joint blog posts, joint launches, integration tutorials, and quarterly co-marketing pushes. This is real surface area: you own the relationships, the calendar, and the deliverables.
Writing
Blog posts, tutorials, deep technical guides, launch posts, X threads, LinkedIn essays. Manufact's voice on the internet runs through you. Frequent, high-quality, technically credible writing.
