Senior Developer Content Manager, Connector SDK
Fivetran, Oakland, CA, United States
Position Title:
Senior Developer Content Manager, Connector SDK
From Fivetran founding until now, our mission has remained the same: to make access to data as simple and reliable as electricity. With Fivetran, customer data arrives in their warehouses, canonical and ready to query, with no engineering or maintenance required. We're proud that more organizations continue to leverage our technology every day to become truly data-driven.
About the Role As Senior Developer Content Manager for Connector SDK, you will drive developer adoption through hands‑on enablement content and community engagement. You'll create the tutorials, walkthroughs, and code samples that get developers successfully building with Fivetran’s Connector SDK. You'll write Python alongside prose, engage directly with developers and open source contributors, and think constantly about onboarding what's confusing, what's missing, what makes someone give up. You'll work closely with the Connector SDK technical writing team who own the reference documentation, and bridge engineering, product, and go-to-market teams to drive adoption and growth.
This is a full‑time position based out of our Bangalore office. Our hybrid work model offers a blend of remote flexibility and in‑person collaboration, including two days in the office each week to connect and build as a team. You will report to the Director of Technical Writing.
