Growth Engineer / Developer Advocate

Hi, I'm David,

co-founder and CEO of Vendure, an open-source commerce framework built for the modern enterprise stack.

It's used by thousands of developers and companies, from Fortune500 to high-growth startups, around the world to build complex commerce systems that don’t suck.

Right now, I’m looking for someone special to join us on this journey — someone who’s technical, creative, curious, and excited about working on the growth side of a developer-facing product.

Not growth in the “A/B test button colors” sense. But real growth:

→ Helping developers discover Vendure

→ Showing them what it’s capable of

→ And helping them fall in love with it

Note: Vendure is a bootstrapped product, backed by our own profitable and independent company, Elevantiq. That means we’re in full control of where we want to take our business — no VCs, no hype. But it also means we care deeply about how and where we spend our money. Every hire matters.

Tasks

You don’t need to do all of these, but ideally a mix of them:

• Build demo apps and integrations that show off Vendure’s capabilities
• Write tutorials, blog posts, and Twitter/X threads
• Speak to our community and engage in conversations with developers
• Build up our docs, microsites, or automation tools
• Help with content for product launches and open-source updates
• Experiment with new ways to reach the right people

Requirements

I don’t care much about titles. You might call yourself a Developer Advocate, Growth Engineer, Technical Content Creator, or something else.

What matters to me is this:

1. You understand developers — because you are one.
2. You love writing, teaching, and building cool stuff to explain other cool stuff.
3. You get energy from putting things into the world.
4. You’re not waiting for permission — you just start.

You'll work closely with me and the rest of our small, experienced team here at Vendure and Elevantiq. We'll sit together in the office (in the center of Vienna — 1070) and figure things out, quickly.

You’ll be involved in shaping the messaging, creating content, and exploring how we can grow Vendure into the enterprise commerce platform for developers.

This is not a job with layers of management, rigid processes, or endless meetings.

It’s hands-on. It’s fast. And it’s meaningful.

Benefits

• A clear mission: Build the best open-source headless commerce framework for complex needs in the world.
• A lot of trust and autonomy.
• A small, sharp team that ships fast and cares about quality.
• A workplace where good ideas win, not job titles.
• A seat at the table: You won’t just execute — you’ll help define where we go next.
• Office in central Vienna — and I’d love for you to be here with us (I am ready to beat you at table tennis )

Salary will depend on your experience and skillset — happy to talk numbers early.
