Job Description

Okta is looking for a Senior Developer Advocate to become the voice of Auth0 in the developer community, primarily on X (Twitter), but extending across every platform where developers talk, argue, ship, and share. We don't need someone who can "do social media." We need someone who already lives in it: someone whose timeline is full of framework debates, shipping threads, and hot takes on the latest security disclosure, and who wakes up knowing what developers are talking about before the rest of the company does.

In this role, you will own Auth0's presence in the public developer conversation. You'll engage authentically with developers, amplify what we're building, surface what the community actually cares about, and help us move at the speed of the discourse. You'll turn real-time community signals into action, whether that's a timely thread, a piece of rapid-response content, feedback routed to the product team, or a connection with an influential voice in the ecosystem.

If you've built a following by being genuinely useful and opinionated in developer circles, and you want to do that full-time for one of the most widely-used identity platforms in the world, this is the role.

Core Responsibilities

• Community Listening & Trend Response: Dedicate time to actively monitoring developer conversations on platforms like Twitter/X, Reddit, and Hacker News. You will identify emerging trends in identity/security and mentions of Auth0, converting these insights into immediate opportunities. This could range from drafting a thoughtful reply or a "hot-take" blog post to commissioning a video explainer or routing critical feedback to the Product/Marketing teams.
• Own Auth0's Developer Presence on X and Beyond: Be the primary voice representing Auth0 in real-time developer conversations on X, as well as Reddit, Hacker News, Bluesky, and other platforms where developers gather. Post regularly, engage authentically, and build a consistent presence that developers actually want to follow.
• Turn Social Into a Feedback Channel: Systematically capture developer pain points, feature requests, praise, and criticism from public conversations and route them to Product, Engineering, and Marketing with context. You are the bridge between what developers say in public and what the company does next.
• Create Fast-Cycle, High-Signal Content: Write threads, short posts, quick takes, and lightweight explainers that ride the moment. When a topic is trending, you should be able to ship something valuable within hours, not weeks. Longer-form content (blog posts, video scripts) is secondary but expected when the moment calls for it.
• Collaborate With Internal Teams: Work closely with Product, Engineering, Developer Relations, and Marketing to ensure that what you're seeing externally informs what we build and how we talk about it. Help shape launch strategies, messaging, and positioning based on real community signal.

Minimum Qualifications

• Experience: 4+ years in developer advocacy, developer relations, or a community-facing technical role, with clear evidence of sustained public engagement with developer audiences.
• Established Social Presence: You have an active, authentic presence on X (and ideally other developer platforms). You don't need to be famous, but you should have a track record of engaging meaningfully in technical conversations and a following that reflects that. Share your profile, we will look.
• Technical Credibility: You can hold your own in a conversation about JavaScript/TypeScript frameworks, authentication flows, API design, or web architecture. You don't need to be a senior engineer, but developers should never feel like they're talking to a marketer.
• Speed and Editorial Judgment: You can assess whether something is worth responding to, draft something sharp, and ship it; all within a short window. You understand the difference between being fast and being reckless.
• Communication: Exceptional written English with a voice that feels natural on social platforms, clear, opinionated when appropriate, technically honest, and never corporate.

Preferred Qualifications 

• • Domain Knowledge: Familiarity with Identity protocols (OAuth 2.0, OIDC, SAML) and web security best practices.
  • Content Versatility: Experience producing short-form video (screen recordings, explainer clips, Loom-style walkthroughs) for social distribution.
  • Network in the Ecosystem: Existing relationships or mutual recognition with developers, advocates, or creators in the JavaScript, full-stack, or security communities.

Our Philosophy on AI

We believe AI is a powerful tool to accelerate research and structure ideas, but it is not a replacement for human expertise. We value AI-resilient content, unique, experience-based insights and verified code that generic models cannot replicate. We look for educators who use AI to work smarter, not to do the work for them.

#LI-Remote

P-1480.1

The Corporate Development team at Anduril has the coolest job in the tech sector - we lead Mergers & Acquisitions activities for the most interesting defense products company in the world, and we create meaningful strategic partnerships with other fast-moving startups and large global corporations. As a Corporate Development Associate, you will perform market research on areas of the market into which we are considering expansion, evaluate the capabilities of potential targets within that market, research previous M&A transactions and comparable public companies, value target businesses, and assist in deal execution.

This role is most similar to an associate-level position in finance or strategy consulting, with slightly more focus on execution and tangible financial analysis and without the typical pretense of those industries.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

• You will be cranking on analyses critical to developing a thesis on a market or specific company. It’s helpful if you are already familiar with the defense market, but fast learners can catch up pretty quickly. You will carefully scope research projects for our internal market research team, evaluate externally-produced research tools and reports, develop expert network screening questions and interview guides, navigate the federal budget and the J-books, and dive deeply into procurement data to understand market dynamics.
• We’re not huge on PowerPoint decks, but the slides you produce will be thoughtful, well-researched, and well-formatted for an executive audience.
• Financial modeling is also a component of this job. You should be capable of pulling comps and assembling a valuation model with the ability to change scenarios based on the unique attributes of a particular business.
• Obsessively take meeting notes, summarize findings and action items, and draft memos for internal and external executives. Track the progress we made on deals every week and summarize into work products catering to different internal audiences.
• Learn Anduril’s business top-to-bottom, and regularly interact with colleagues in hardware and software engineering, supply chain & manufacturing, finance, business development, government relations, etc.
• Manage confidential projects with very sensitive information.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

• You have 2+ years of experience in management consulting, investment banking, or private equity/venture capital.
• You are humble and hungry; no task is too small or beneath you, and you will bring a just-get-it-done mindset to work every day.
• You are self-driven and relentlessly proactive. You don’t need someone to tell you to “move”. You just move. We’d rather have to tell you to slow down than to speed up.
• You don’t wait on others to solve problems. You proactively step into the gap to offer solutions yourself.
• You have strong analytical aptitude. You intuitively think about problems in terms of numbers and models, and you are able to execute analyses quickly in Excel.
• You are comfortable communicating broadly and having a lot of eyes on your work. This role can at-times require comms to large groups and senior leadership. This should excite you!
• U.S. Person status is required as this position needs to access export-controlled data. Must also be able to obtain and hold a U.S. Secret-level Security Clearance.
• Previous experience in aerospace and defense highly preferred. 
• Ability to travel 25 – 40% required.

ABOUT THE TEAM

This role is part of Anduril’s Corporate Development team and reports to the Head of Corporate Development, with frequent interaction with the c-suite. This role is an excellent fit for someone who is smart, analytical, and willing to hustle, and who has an intense personal interest in securing American supply chains. The successful candidate will be both deeply thoughtful about building industrial capacity as well as biased towards taking discrete action that will benefit Anduril’s product portfolio.

ABOUT THE JOB

Anduril believes very strongly in designing and developing systems that can be produced by the supply chain that America and our allies already have, rather than the supply chain we wish we had. The majority of our products use commercial sector production processes, materials, and components, and Anduril generally prefers to rely on thriving competitive markets with many suppliers instead of vertically integrating our supply chain. As Anduril grows, we will provide additional signal to suppliers about our future needs, allowing them to make good decisions about investing in capacity and designing new products that we will want to use.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

• You will develop a repeatable analytical process for assessing Anduril’s long-term industrial capacity needs. You will own this process, but you will also partner with leaders from Anduril’s business development, product, engineering, manufacturing, production and supply chain organizations to identify significant growth areas where Anduril should provide market signal in advance of demand
• You will work closely with internal colleagues to collect internal production targets, the design change landscape, and supplier production plans to set up a robust industrial capacity plan capable of scaling with multiple configurations and production rates. You will communicate forecasts to internal and external stakeholders that accurately reflect Anduril’s business requirements while hedging against potential upside or change in business direction
• In tandem with a deal leader from the Corporate Development team, you will identify specific areas where Anduril should increase the depth and breadth of available suppliers, and execute strategic partnerships and long-term supplier agreements to create increased capacity
• You will draft long-form thought leadership, talking points, and other collateral for Anduril’s executive team to use in discussion with elected representatives, customers, the White House, industry partners and in public communications. You will liaise with Anduril’s government and media relations functions to share our perspective on building industrial capacity
• You will guide and mentor peers and team members across the company to strengthen organizational resiliency and ingrain the concept of increasing industrial capacity in advance of demand
• You will define and incorporate organization-level processes and improvements that enable the business to scale and efficiently utilize its purchasing power, leveraging learnings from world-class manufacturers and other high-volume industries
• You will develop easy-to-read reporting and dashboards to measure team KPIs and support the program as it scales 

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS 

• 5+ years of work experience with demonstrated successes in a high-pressure role where pace and execution quality matters - management consulting, investment banking, internal strategy & operations, venture capital, elite government (e.g., legislative or executive branch) or business analyst roles
• Advanced proficiency in Excel, financial modeling and data analysis tools, and experience with financial reporting tools and ERP systems (i.e. Anaplan, Netsuite, Oracle, Foundry).
• Exceptional written and oral communication skills. You drive consensus through grounded arguments, interpersonal skills, and negotiation skills.
• Experience interfacing with leadership and executives - you understand how to cultivate trust and facilitate meetings for and engage with executives
• Combination ability to execute on a tactical level as well as put together a strategy to solve complex, ambiguous, cross-functional problems. You are comfortable rolling up your sleeves and diving deep into executing operational tasks that require high attention to detail and high organization skills, but you can also zoom out and create a strategy that solves high level problems for the business line, division, and company
• High ownership with the horsepower to juggle multiple (3-5+) large projects and priorities in parallel, at a rapid pace, and report out on progress regularly without dropping any balls
• Comfortable working in a fast-moving, ambiguous environment.
• Excited by large breadth of problems.
• Discerning and an incredibly fast learner
• Highly organized
• Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Top Secret security clearance
• Must be a U.S. Person due to required access to U.S. export controlled information or facilities

Our 700+ team members across 50+ countries come from leading organizations and elite academic backgrounds. We move fast, keep hierarchy light, and prioritize impact over optics. If you want to do meaningful work with exceptionally high-caliber people, this is it.

Purpose of the role

Most US journalists have heard of Proton. Far fewer understand what we have built, how many people rely on us, or why it matters. Changing that is the core of this job.

You will be Proton's presence on the ground in the US, spending significant time building relationships with journalists, editors, podcast hosts, newsletter writers, and video journalists. You will get Proton's story in front of the people who shape how millions of Americans think about privacy, technology, and the internet. This is a media relations role at its core. Think of it as sales, with journalists as your customers.

You will report to Proton's Head of Communications and work closely with colleagues across communications, product, and policy teams in Europe and the US. Proton’s Communications team is currently spread across the US, France, UK, Germany and Switzerland.

This is the right role for someone who is hungry, naturally networked, and ready to take real ownership of a major market.

What you will do

• Build and own Proton's media relationships in North America, with a focus on journalists, editors, podcast hosts, newsletter writers, and video journalists who reach the audiences we need to win.
• Expand Proton's coverage beyond the tech press and legacy outlets. We need to be in the rooms where our potential users actually consume news and information.
• Tell Proton's story compellingly and consistently: our scale, our mission, our track record, and why a private alternative to the dominant platforms matters.
• Respond to media inquiries across product, policy, and reputation topics, working with colleagues in Europe to ensure accuracy, speed and protect Proton's reputation.
• Support Proton's presence at conferences and events, helping to secure speaking slots and media opportunities for Proton representatives.
• Collaborate with the broader communications team on campaigns tied to product launches, policy moments, and news cycles.

Who You Are

• 3+ years of experience in PR, communications, or media relations, with demonstrated success pitching and placing stories.
• Genuine relationships with journalists, editors, or media makers — or a clear track record of building them fast.
• Deep familiarity with the US media landscape beyond legacy outlets: podcasts, newsletters, YouTube, video journalism, and new media formats.
• A natural networker who is comfortable getting out of the office, taking meetings, and building trust over time. You treat this like relationship sales.
• Strong enough command of technology and privacy topics to speak credibly with journalists and field tough questions.

Nice to Have

• Experience working with or for a European company in the US market.
• Existing relationships with journalists covering privacy, technology, or policy.
• Experience with policy communications or regulatory environments.

What we offer

• Work that Matters: millions of people trust Proton with their privacy. We answer only to our users — not advertisers, not investors with conflicting agendas, not governments. The work you do here is real, and the impact is measurable. (read more about our impact here)
• A great Team: Our team is diverse, collaborative, and tight-knit with people coming from all walks of life, including many of the world’s top academic institutions and organizations, such as MIT, Harvard, Stanford, Caltech, Cambridge, and ETH.
• Technology: you'll get the right hardware and the right software you need to do your best work.
• Learning & Development: we invest in your growth because sharp people make us better. Proton is one of the fastest ways to accelerate your career because you'll be thrown into real challenges, with real ownership, from day one.
• Employee Benefits: your wellbeing isn't an afterthought. We offer strong health coverage, solid retirement options, generous leave, and wellness support so you can bring your best self to work every day
• Stock Options: at Proton, we all have the opportunity to be owners of the company. From day one, you have a real stake in what we're building. When Proton wins, you win.
• In-Person Collaboration: Amazing things happen when passionate, smart, and purposeful people get together in the same room. With offices across Geneva, Zürich, Barcelona, London and more, you'll spend most of your time collaborating face-to-face with people who genuinely care about what they're building
• Food: Lunch and snacks are on us every day in our offices so you can focus on the work and not on what's for lunch.
• Transport: getting to the office shouldn't cost you. We cover public transport, bike allowances, or parking, whichever works for you.
• Flexible Working: you own your schedule. Set hours that work for you and your team — because outcomes matter more than when the clock says you started.

Our Commitment to Diversity and Inclusion

At Proton, we believe diversity drives innovation and strengthens our mission to provide privacy as a default for all. We are committed to fostering an inclusive environment where all individuals — regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, age, sexual orientation, physical ability, or socio-economic background — feel valued and empowered.

If you need any extra support or reasonable adjustments during the hiring process, please let your talent partner know.

Chief Communications Strategist

Service Employees International Union (SEIU)

Location: Washington, DC

Reports to: Chief of Staff

Salary: $162,520.47

Organizational Overview

We are the Service Employees International Union (SEIU), a union of about 2 million diverse members in healthcare, the public sector, and property services. We believe in and fight for our Vision for a Just Society: where all workers are valued and all people respected, no matter where we come from or what color we are; where all families and communities can thrive; and where we leave a better and more equitable world for generations to come. We are an anti-racist union determined to check corporate power and uproot structural racism through unions, worker power, collective action, and government, legislative, and political action. We fight for Unions for All and a Government that Works for All so that all of us, across race and place, can have power together in unions and participate fully in our democracy.

Purpose

The Chief Communications Strategist provides executive leadership for SEIU’s transformation into a modern, digitally fluent, and culturally resonant communications operation that builds political power, shapes public narratives, and centers workers’ voices. This role elevates communications as a core strategic lever—integrating storytelling, creative expression, digital engagement, and media strategy into organizing, political, and campaign work from inception. As a senior member of SEIU’s leadership and in close partnership with the Chief of Staff and Design Committee, the Chief Communications Strategist helps shape and implement the union’s strategic vision, ensuring communications advance SEIU’s commitment to becoming an anti-racist organization and a 21st-century labor movement leader.

Primary Responsibilities

Any one position may not include all of the specific duties and responsibilities listed. Examples provide a general summary of the work required and should not be treated as a total and complete list of expected duties to be performed by employees in the classification.

Strategic Leadership & Organizational Transformation

• Develop and execute comprehensive communications strategies that advance SEIU’s campaigns, organizational goals, and political priorities, with measurable impact on membership growth, public perception, cultural relevance, and policy outcomes.
• Serve as a core member of SEIU’s leadership, contributing to high-level strategic direction and translating the vision of the Chief of Staff and Design Committee into clear, executable communications priorities.
• Lead the modernization of SEIU’s communications infrastructure, including transition to video-first production, enhanced digital capacity, creative standards, and data-informed decision-making.
• Support organizational change management, ensuring communications capacity aligns with organizing, political, and campaign priorities and functions coherently across the union.
• Establish innovation frameworks that encourage creative experimentation, cultural relevance, and rapid iteration while maintaining message discipline, accountability, and strategic coherence.
• Oversee press, media relations, and external communications, ensuring consistent, values-aligned, and strategically targeted messaging across traditional and emerging platforms.

Digital Strategy & Audience Development

• Build institutional capacity for video production and creative content, including studio infrastructure, production standards, talent development, and training systems that position SEIU as a video-first organization.
• Lead comprehensive digital strategy across owned, earned, and paid channels, prioritizing audience ownership, engagement, and long-term movement-building rather than reliance on traditional media intermediaries.
• Integrate research, data analytics, and audience insights into communications planning, establishing systems for message testing, content performance tracking, and impact measurement.
• Expand narrative reach beyond core membership to include potential members, younger workers, culturally influential communities, diverse geographies, and values-aligned publics.

Narrative Development & Message Discipline

• Craft compelling narratives grounded in race-class analysis that center workers’ lived experiences, advance SEIU’s values, influence public debate, and articulate a bold vision for a just society.
• Embed racial equity and justice into all communications strategies, practices, narratives, and team culture, advancing SEIU’s commitment to becoming an anti-racist organization.
• Ensure message discipline across decentralized operations while empowering authentic, member-led storytelling within shared strategic narratives.
• Lead crisis communications planning and rapid response operations with clarity, humanity, and political acuity, protecting marginalized communities while maintaining strategic focus.
• Monitor media trends, cultural shifts, political developments, and public opinion to inform proactive strategy and anticipate narrative opportunities and threats.

Cross-Functional Integration & Partnership

• Partner with hub directors, organizing leaders, and political teams to integrate communications into union-wide initiatives from inception, ensuring communications functions as a strategic driver rather than tactical support.
• Collaborate across communications, digital, organizing, research, and political functions to break down silos and create integrated, efficient workflows.
• Serve as a strategic advisor to senior leaders, helping frame decisions, anticipate narrative implications, and align internal and external messaging.
• Provide strategic communications support, capacity-building, and training to SEIU locals and allied organizations.
• Establish shared accountability systems around clearly defined goals, decision rights, and measurable outcomes, enabling faster decision-making and responsive communications.

External Representation & Stakeholder Relations

• Serve as senior spokesperson with national media, elected officials, coalition partners, cultural leaders, and key stakeholders, representing SEIU’s strategic interests in high-level forums.
• Build shared narrative power across the labor and social justice ecosystem, aligning communications efforts with movement partners and amplifying worker voices in national and international discourse.
• Strengthen SEIU’s reputation as a communications and cultural leader in economic and racial justice movements.
• Cultivate strategic relationships with media leaders, cultural influencers, and digital platforms to expand SEIU’s reach beyond traditional labor communications channels.

Team Leadership & Organizational Management

• Manage communications staff, consultants, and resources while fostering a culture of inclusion, equity, creative excellence, accountability, and professional development within a 40+ person team.
• Supervise department directors and senior staff, providing clear direction, performance management, mentorship, and support while empowering distributed leadership and innovation.
