About Augment Code

Augment Code is the only AI coding assistant built for professional software engineers working in large, production-grade codebases. Our Context Engine understands your entire repo, enabling developers to stay in flow while writing, reviewing, and understanding code. Backed by top-tier investors and trusted by engineering teams at leading tech companies, Augment Code is redefining how modern software is built.

About the Role

We're hiring a Content Engineer to uncover, craft, and distribute the stories that earn Augment Code a permanent spot on every developer's reading list (and Hacker News' front page). You'll operate like an in-house investigative reporter : catching a half-formed idea in Slack, a casual comment in All-Hands, or a customer "aha!" moment-and turning it into long-form thought leadership, deep-dive technical blogs, scripts, or campaign copy that resonates with senior software engineers.

You'll be the distribution engine, too. Hitting "publish" is only the halfway mark; success is measured in reach, engagement, and conversation sparked across Reddit, X, dev.to, newsletters, podcasts, and beyond. Early-stage startup life means the scope will stretch to match your ambition, and the playbook is yours to write.

Key Responsibilities

  • Story mining & content creation - Source compelling technical narratives from engineering, research, leadership, and customers; own the full editorial process from outline to polished draft.
  • Long-form first, explode everywhere - Ship in-depth posts (2-3k words) then atomize into social threads, scripts, ads, and newsletter copy.
  • Own distribution & performance - Develop channel strategies, run experiments, and report on traffic, engagement, and community momentum.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally - Partner with product marketing, comms, sales, and solutions engineering to align content with launches and campaigns.
  • Champion AI-native workflows - Leverage the latest AI tools for research, drafting, and repurposing to move fast without sacrificing quality.
  • Maintain editorial excellence - Uphold a voice that's technical, opinionated, and developer-friendly-never "marketing-y."

Qualifications

  • 5+ years creating technical content for a B2B or developer-first product (no upper cap on experience).
  • Proven ability to translate complex engineering topics into narratives that drive engagement and discussion.
  • Demonstrated success owning distribution metrics (traffic, shares, subscriber growth, etc.).
  • Deep curiosity about AI, LLMs, and modern software engineering practices.
  • Entrepreneurial mindset : autonomous, resourceful, bias-to-action, comfortable in ambiguity.
  • Exceptional writing and editing chops; familiarity with video, podcast, or livestream formats a plus.
  • Experience with SEO, analytics, and community platforms (Hacker News, Reddit, X) is highly desirable.
  • Why Join Us

  • Real agency & exposure - Work directly with founders and senior leadership on the stories that define our category.
  • Shape a new market - Help professional developers adopt AI tooling that changes how software is built.
  • High-growth environment - Intense, dynamic, and packed with opportunity to expand the role as we scale.
  • Competitive salary, meaningful equity, and all the benefits you'd expect from a well-funded startup.
  • Employee Benefits :

  • Flexible work hours
  • Competitive salary & Equity
  • Tools Stipend
  • Health, Dental, Vision and Life Insurance
  • Short Term and Long Term Disability
  • Unlimited Paid Time Off + Holidays. We focus on trust and ownership, not time in the chair
  • Numerous company social events
  • We will do everything we can within reason to make sure that your interview takes place in an environment that fairly and accurately assesses your skills. If you need assistance or accommodation, please contact your recruiter.

    Augment Code is proud to be an Equal Employment Opportunity employer. We do not discriminate based upon race, religion, color, national origin, gender (including pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions), sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, age, status as a protected veteran, status as an individual with a disability, or other applicable legally protected characteristics.
