Role overview
As Senior Developer Content Manager for Connector SDK, you will drive developer adoption through hands-on enablement content and community engagement. You'll create the tutorials, walkthroughs, and code samples that get developers successfully building with Fivetran's Connector SDK. You'll write Python alongside prose, engage directly with developers and open source contributors, and think constantly about onboarding — what's confusing, what's missing, what makes someone give up. You'll work closely with the Connector SDK technical writing team who own the reference documentation, and bridge engineering, product, and go-to-market teams to drive adoption and growth.
