At Prisma, we are building the data layer for modern applications. If you are fascinated by the leading-edge architecture and technology used in today’s data-intensive, highly scalable software systems, with distributed graph data on a massive scale, but you want the energy, challenges, and freedom that come with working in a small startup, then a job at Prisma might be for you.
With funding from top-tier investors Amplify Partners and Kleiner Perkins, we are a small distributed team working on making the advanced data infrastructure developed at large tech companies accessible to all application developers around the world. Our hard work is paying off, with adoption and implementation of Prisma by some of the most successful and interesting companies out there today, and the fun is just beginning!
We are focused on bottom-up adoption, and most of our software is open-source. We have a vibrant community on Slack and Github - with over 40,000 members on Slack - where we regularly engage with the Prisma community.
Thousands of developers are using the Prisma tools to build applications and we want to help making them successful. That's why we're looking for a Developer Success Engineer to join our growing team.
As a Developer Success Engineer, your main goal is to ensure developers can reach their goals by using Prisma, focusing, especially, on providing community support on the Prisma Slack, on GitHub, Stackoverflow and other channels where developers ask questions about Prisma.
As we are building out a commercial offering in addition to the open-source tools, you will become part of the professional support team that supports users of the commercial tools.
To be successful in this role, you should have a passion for community and helping and educating other developers.
You should be the kind of person that thrives and gets energized when they can help developers solve a problem, and have experience in building applications in the Node.js and JavaScript ecosystem.
Note that this role can be a great entry-point to transition into a product or engineering role later during your time at Prisma!
