Full Job Description

📋 Description

• Drive DeepL's headless distribution surfaces by owning the reach and adoption of the DeepL MCP server and CLI, ensuring seamless integration into developer workflows for agentic AI systems.
• Partner with Engineering, Design, and Product teams to align MCP and CLI functionality with how developers build, ship, and integrate AI-powered tools and workflows.
• Drive discoverability of DeepL’s MCP across major AI ecosystems including Claude, ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, and emerging agent marketplaces to establish DeepL as the default translation layer.
• Increase CLI adoption through package registries (npm, pip, Homebrew), GitHub visibility, CI/CD integration examples, starter kits, and developer toolchain optimizations.
• Collaborate with the Partners team to embed MCP and CLI capabilities into hyperscaler marketplaces and co-sell motions with cloud providers.
• Monitor the agentic tooling and developer ecosystem to identify emerging distribution opportunities and feed ecosystem intelligence back to Product and Engineering teams.
• Own the end-to-end headless activation funnel—from MCP install or CLI OAuth through first successful translation to first paid character usage—identifying and removing friction points with data-driven insights.
• Shape the free-tier strategy and onboarding experience to optimize conversion rates and usage-led growth within the developer ecosystem.
• Create high-value developer artifacts including prompt libraries, agent templates, implementation examples, and integration guides that position DeepL as the obvious choice for agentic builders.
• Develop workflow documentation that demonstrates how DeepL’s glossary, style, and customization capabilities enhance agentic workflows beyond native LLM translation.
• Build production-grade code samples and reference integrations that go beyond toy demos to show real-world, scalable usage of DeepL’s API in AI agent systems.
• Create technical content that demonstrates practitioner-level usage—showing where developers verify output, when they trust it, and how they combine DeepL with agentic patterns to achieve results unattainable with native translation.
• Publish content across GitHub, Discord, LinkedIn, developer newsletters, and other channels, structuring it for discoverability by both human developers and AI coding assistants.
• Participate meaningfully in developer communities where agentic workflows are built, establishing DeepL as a credible and trusted voice.
• Amplify developers already using DeepL through showcases, workflow breakdowns, and collaborative content to expand organic reach and credibility.
• Build relationships with creator-developers and ecosystem influencers whose audiences align with DeepL’s target builder cohorts.
• Strengthen DeepL’s presence and trust across the digital surfaces where developers discover, evaluate, and adopt new tools.
• Gather signal from MCP communities, GitHub discussions, AI ecosystems, and direct developer feedback to identify emerging integration patterns and gaps in DeepL’s API.
• Translate ecosystem insights into actionable product roadmap input, helping shape the future of DeepL’s API and agentic AI offerings from the outside in.
• Report on the headless funnel as a leading indicator of ecosystem growth, adoption trends, and product-market fit for DeepL’s developer-facing products.

🎯 Requirements

• Significant hands-on experience building with AI agents, copilots, developer tools, or related ecosystems
• Experience creating technical content that developers actively use and trust
• Strong understanding of developer workflows, APIs, integrations, and automation
• Ability to work cross-functionally with Product, Engineering, Marketing, and Partnerships teams
• Demonstrated ability to identify ecosystem trends and translate insights into action
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills

🏖️ Benefits

• Diverse and internationally distributed team with over 90 nationalities
• Hybrid work schedule with several days in the office each week
• Virtual Shares linking employee contribution to DeepL’s growth
• Regular in-person team events
