Position Overview

  • Location Type: [Not Specified]
  • Job Type: FullTime
  • Salary: [Not Specified]

At Render, we are dedicated to building a powerful and user-friendly cloud that simplifies hosting for every developer and team. Our platform supports a wide range of applications, from simple static sites to complex multi-service architectures. By offering the flexibility of traditional cloud providers without their associated complexity and maintenance challenges, we enable our users to concentrate on product development instead of managing servers.

Our team is a diverse and talented group addressing universal challenges of software development. We prioritize rapid iteration while maintaining a strong focus on user experience, craft, and reliability. This commitment drives us to improve continually. Our organic, product-led growth has attracted over 2.5 million developers, with rapid growth of new developers signing up every month. Our customers trust Render for our reliable and scalable cloud with enterprise-grade capabilities, fully managed datastores, and advanced security and compliance features.

In January 2025, we reached a significant milestone by raising $80 million in Series C financing, bringing our total funding to $157M. This investment enables us to accelerate our vision of making cloud infrastructure both powerful and intuitive, while catering to the evolving needs of the AI era.

About the Role

As a Technical Content Engineer at Render, you will inspire developers to build better products faster through innovative applications that leverage Render. You'll write code, publish blog posts, engage in technical discussions, and help identify developer needs underserved by traditional Platform-as-a-Service cloud solutions. You will grow an engaged and collaborative developer community around a platform that has attracted over 2.5 million developers, with 200,000+ new developers signing up every month. You'll help build Render's reputation as the developer platform of choice for deploying apps and services to the cloud.

Responsibilities

  • Build awareness of Render with blog series, video tutorials, sample apps, and social bites that drive signups from professional developers at high-growth startups.
  • Own end-to-end tutorials from concept to code, docs, and video, with clear next steps that inspire developers to build with Render.
  • Script, film, and produce short, polished video walkthroughs and demo reels that scale across our channels.
  • Shape our content roadmap as a senior partner to Engineering, Product, and Marketing—define themes, set the quality bar, and iterate on feedback and metrics.

What We're Looking For

  • Excellent AI-enhanced writing with great taste. You know what world-class content looks like and can use tools like Cursor and Claude to ship quality work on a regular cadence.
  • Full-stack engineering experience. You have strong backend skills (Node.js, Python, Postgres), comfort with Docker containers, and enough frontend chops to build sample apps end-to-end.
  • Polished video production skills. You can script and record video tutorials for developers that teach them how to build something new.
  • 5–10 years building developer content or as an engineer-turned-educator at an early-stage develope

Applying to Render

We're seeking candidates who possess high integrity, humility, and an insatiable drive to learn. Through reasoned discussions and continuous feedback, we strive to improve both individually and collectively. We foster an environment of mutual trust and respect, empowering effective debate to achieve the best outcomes for our customers and team.

We especially encourage members of underrepresented groups in the tech community to apply and understand that not all successful candidates will meet each requirement listed.

Our interview process is unique to each role, and we value the candidate experience just as much as our customer experience. We hope your conversations with us reflect a thoughtful process that is illuminative, enjoyable, and respectful of your time.
