Developer Growth Engineer
About the role
We sell to developers and, increasingly, to agents that discover and pay for APIs on their own. This role owns that surface: the docs, the SDKs, the integrations, and the writing that makes someone try the API and keep it. Half engineering, half distribution, and you would own both halves.
About NewsMesh
NewsMesh turns the world's news into clean, structured, real-time data. We ingest thousands of sources continuously, enrich every article with category, topics, people, and country relevance, and serve it through an API used by developers and, increasingly, by AI agents that discover and pay for it on their own. We are a small, senior team, and the work is measured by one thing: whether the data is right, current, and easy to use.
What you'll do
- Own the developer experience: docs, SDKs, examples, and the first-run path
- Build integrations and tooling that put NewsMesh where developers already work
- Write technical content that earns attention without being marketing filler
- Measure activation and retention, and fix what the numbers say is broken
What we look for
- Strong engineering background and genuinely good technical writing
- Have built with third-party APIs and formed opinions about which ones felt good
- Comfortable owning a metric, not just shipping features
Bonus points
- Experience with MCP, agent tooling, or the LLM ecosystem
- Have grown a developer product or open-source project before
Compensation
Depending on experience, the expected pay range is $150K–$195K.
What we offer
- Competitive pay, in the range listed above
- Remote across the US
- Real ownership: you will ship work customers depend on
- A small, senior team with high standards and little process
How we hire
We read every application. If there is a fit, expect a short intro call, a practical exercise rooted in the kind of work you would actually do, and a few conversations with the people you would work with. A link to something you have built beats a resume.
