Everything we publish - the posts, the launches, the docs that read like arguments, the demos - is yours to write and ship. Our growth today comes from developers who found the repo, installed it, and told someone. Your job is to make far more of them find it.\nThis is a writing job for someone who likes software. You don't need to be an engineer, but you do need to be the kind of person who installs the tool, breaks it on purpose, and finds the story in what happened. The best thing we can publish is a developer explaining something true and specific about debugging agents - that's the bar, and you'll hit it weekly.\nWe move fast, debate hard, and execute even harder. You'll work in person with me at least 3 days a week. You won't own everything in one summer - you'll pick a channel with me and own that number end-to-end. There's a path into our full-time Founding GTM role; be aware that role adds calls and pipeline to the writing, so converting means growing into the commercial half too.\nWhat You’ll Do\nWrite the things developers actually read - technical deep dives, postmortems, and docs-as-marketing about what breaks in production agents and how to see it. Not thought leadership; specific, useful writing with real traces and real code in it.\n\nRun the launches - Hacker News, Product Hunt, Reddit, and X. You'll write the post, prepare the assets, be in the comments answering people all day, and do the follow-through that turns a spike into retained users.\n\nOwn SEO and GEO - comparison pages and problem-first pages that rank, and getting TraceRoot cited by ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity when someone asks how to debug an agent. This is a compounding channel and it will be substantially yours.\n\nShow the product, don't describe it - short demo clips, screenshots, and walkthroughs that make the thing obvious in ten seconds; plus dev-influencer collabs, hackathons, and a Discord where people actually get answers.\n\nKnow what worked - track which post, page, or launch actually drove installs and traces, and say so honestly, including when the answer is \"none of them.\" We'll set you up in PostHog; you don't need to build it.\n\nRequirements\nYou write, and people read it: a blog, a newsletter, a thread that went somewhere, docs, a README people thanked you for. Any of it counts. Send it.\n\nTechnically curious enough to be credible: you can install TraceRoot yourself with Claude Code, read a stack trace, and explain what happened without a hand-holder. You do not need to write production code for this role.\n\nYou have taste in developer content: you know why a post lands on Hacker News and why marketing copy gets torn apart there, because you read those threads for fun.\n\nFast and prolific: you'd rather ship six pieces and learn which two worked than polish one for a month.\n\nStrong sense of ownership and bias for action: you own outcomes, not tasks, and you make things happen without waiting for a roadmap or a content calendar.\n\nPreferred Experience\nYou've done this unpaid already: grown an open-source project, run a technical blog or newsletter, or written docs for something people use.\n\nIn the community: you're around people building agents, and you know who the voices are.\n\nLLMs as a tool, not a topic: you use model APIs to research, draft, and repurpose - and you know exactly where that stops working and you have to write it yourself.\n\nTo Apply\nSend two things:\nTwo sentences on the first experiment you'd run to get more agent-building teams onto TraceRoot.\n\nA link to something you built - a repo, a script, a scraper, a landing page, a Discord bot, an outreach system. It does not need to be a growth project and it does not need to be impressive; we just want to see you ship.","description_format":"text","description_chars":3777,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United States","iso":"US","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["AI Agents","Observability & APM"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-08T20:10:27Z"}],"visa":[{"country":"US","licensed_sponsor":true,"evidence":"H-1B filings in 12 months: 1","filings_12m":1,"filings_prev_12m":0,"green_card_filings_12m":0,"median_offered_wage_usd":137500,"route":null,"cap_exempt":false,"checked_at":"2026-10-15T11:24:14+00:00","sources":["US Department of Labor: LCA disclosure data (H-1B, H-1B1, E-3)"],"filings_for_role_12m":0}],"liveness":{"score":15,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.419,"p_room":0.36,"age_days":48,"expected_fill_days":25,"reasons":["conf:1","win:tail","crowd:junior"],"computed_at":"2026-10-27T05:46:45Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":72000,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/traceroot-ai-developer-marketing-intern","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/traceroot-ai-developer-marketing-intern.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-27T16:30:18Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":5921,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-28T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":450733},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=450733"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Ftraceroot-ai-developer-marketing-intern"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Ftraceroot-ai-developer-marketing-intern"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Ftraceroot-ai-developer-marketing-intern"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/traceroot-ai-developer-marketing-intern\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Ftraceroot-ai-developer-marketing-intern"}]}
