As a Demo Software Engineer you will be responsible for developing digital applications showcasing the use of Contentful within well-established categories and emerging areas. You will be the first to see new product features and play a critical role in bringing them to the market by building demos featured in product launches, analyst calls and annual customer conferences. In the off-season, you will help Contentful users get the most out of the product by developing how-to guides and tutorials, recording technical videos, and - occasionally - conducting in-person workshops.
This is a hands-on position that requires solid development skills and experience in shipping successful digital applications. You will be routinely asked to create things from scratch and craft delightful interaction loops, so creative thinking and good UX instincts are important for this role. Expect to be working on a wide range of tasks - frontend, backend, QA, devops - and a diverse set of projects spanning web, mobile, internal tooling, and AI. The demo team operates a modern technology stack and has a lot of say in deciding what tools and architectural patterns to use on the job.
While the core Demo team is small, we work with numerous stakeholders to deliver on our goals. We partner with Sales, Product, Engineering and Partnership teams to identify key business requirements and technical specifications for demo assets. We are experienced at augmenting our team with freelancers, agencies, and partners when tackling large-scale development projects. And we work closely with other marketing teams to drive product adoption through long-term educational programs and ad hoc campaigns.
Be a part of an agile development team with a high impact across the organization:
