Job description

We want to build agents that autonomously validate code changes. Today that looks like AI that reviews pull requests in GitHub, catching bugs and enforcing standards.

Greptile reviews 5B lines of code every month for 22,000+ customers.

This role is for someone who wants to be a public voice in the AI developer ecosystem, while helping Greptile’s users succeed and helping the product land with clarity.

Problems We’re Excited About

  • The AI coding conversation is noisy. Can we publish signal and taste that developers actually trust.
  • Code quality is hard to define but easy to feel. Can we stand for readable, maintainable, well reviewed code, and make that concrete through examples.
  • Most DevRel content is either marketing or docs. Can we do both, with a real point of view.
  • Launches fail when the story is unclear. Can we make every release feel obvious, useful, and easy to adopt.

Trajectory

  • 22,000+ customers
  • 5B lines of code reviewed every month
  • Scaled from $0 to eight figures in ARR
  • Raised $30M from Benchmark, Y Combinator, Paul Graham, and Initialized

Team

  • We have assembled a small, talent dense team who have scaled critical functions at companies like Stripe, Google, Figma, etc.

Responsibilities (in order of how much time you’ll likely spend on each)

  • Be a voice in AI coding. Track what is happening, publish commentary, and help lead signature projects like the State of AI Coding Report.
  • Evangelize Greptile’s story and features. Turn what we build into clear messaging, demos, examples, and narratives that developers trust.
  • Own launches and customer communication. Write announcements, walkthroughs, and release notes, then make sure users adopt new features successfully.
  • Keep our documentation accurate and useful. Improve onboarding, quickstarts, examples, structure, and clarity so new users can get started without friction.
  • Drive adoption in open source and high signal teams. Identify great repos and contributors, help them adopt Greptile, answer questions, and collect feedback. Do unscalable things for the first 100.

Qualifications

  • Strong writing and speaking skills, with the ability to explain technical ideas simply.
  • Enough technical depth to write code examples, debug basic issues, and collaborate closely with engineers.
  • Familiarity with developer platforms like GitHub, Twitter, and Hacker News, and how their cultures work.
  • Experience contributing to open source, building developer tooling, or doing community work is a plus.

You will like this role if

  • You consume AI developer content constantly and want to have a point of view in public.
  • You care about engineering craft and you want to raise the bar on what good AI assisted code review looks like.
  • You like launches, fast iteration, and being close to users.
  • You enjoy being a builder and a communicator, not just one or the other.

Why work at Greptile

  • Culture: Small, tight-knit team of researchers, engineers, and designers in San Francisco. High autonomy and ownership. Focus on solving hard problems in code quality.
  • Work model: All open roles are listed as “San Francisco” – likely office-first with some flexibility (hybrid). The team is described as “based in San Francisco” and “small group”.
  • Perks & compensation: Equity (0.10% – 0.30% for some roles per YC jobs), competitive salary ($140K–$160K for engineering roles). Discounts for open-source projects and pre-Series A startups.
  • Engineering culture: Building agents that autonomously validate and test code; strong emphasis on quality, security, and continuous improvement. Opportunity to shape the future of code review at scale.
