About Tolgee

At Tolgee, we're revolutionizing how companies localize their software. Our mission? To help development teams translate their projects into multiple languages faster and more efficiently than ever before. As Tolgee is a developer-oriented product, we're passionate about making developer's lives easier.

Tolgee started as an open-source project in 2020, a university thesis that earned a Dean's Award. Since then, we've been growing Tolgee and attracting users worldwide. We've also joined the Technology Incubation program, where we developed our own AI machine translator. Recently, we've secured our seed investment enabling us to grow our team.

Tolgee is open-source, but in the same time, we focus on sustainable business growth. Our revenue grows by 8% each month, and we aim for 12% in the next 18 months. Inspired by companies like PostHog, GitLab, and Sentry, we want to become the top choice for developers in localization (i18n).

What we value

We believe in open-source values and are committed to building a strong community. Providing a self-hosted product is an essential part of our philosophy.

  • We are transparent. Really. We build our product publicly, sharing our plans as individual tasks on GitHub in public repositories. Everyone can read our code, and everyone can improve it.

  • We give people as much freedom as possible while keeping them responsible for the results. We value autonomous people who have ideas and are willing to implement them themselves or find the resources to get things done.

  • We ship fast, but at the same time, we provide stable and tested products.

Who we are looking for

We’re searching for a Developer Advocate who lives and breathes developer experience. You’ll be the bridge between Tolgee’s engineering team and the global community of developers who rely on our open-source localization platform. Your mission: make sure every interaction—from the first “npm i tolgee-react” to advanced production use—feels intuitive, well-documented, and even fun.

What you'll be doing

  • Mapping the developer journey – audit our onboarding flow, SDKs, and integration guides to spot friction points and quick wins.

  • Owning the docs & samples – create, refactor, and maintain world-class documentation, code snippets, demo apps, and tutorials.

  • Championing the community – chat with users on GitHub, Discord, Stack Overflow, Twitter, conferences, and wherever devs hang out; funnel actionable feedback to the product team.

  • Creating engaging content – publish blog posts, videos, livestreams, and newsletters that teach, inspire, and showcase new features.

  • Speaking & demoing – represent Tolgee at meetups, podcasts, and events; run hands-on workshops and lightning talks.

  • Building example integrations – ship reference projects (React, Next.js, Vue, Kotlin, Spring Boot, etc.) that make adopting Tolgee a no-brainer.

  • Measuring success – define metrics (time-to-first-translation, doc page CTR, GitHub stars, etc.) and iterate based on data.

Requirements

  • Strong coding chops in JavaScript/TypeScript plus familiarity with Java/Kotlin (our main backend stack).

  • A portfolio of technical writing, talks, videos, or open-source contributions.

  • Excellent written & spoken English; able to explain complex ideas in plain language.

  • Comfortable juggling multiple channels (docs repo, GitHub Issues, social media, conference stages).
