Role Overview

This position is an individual contributor role focused on building and scaling developer community programmes that strengthen ADI’s developer-first approach and create measurable business and ecosystem outcomes.

The role involves working across online and in-person channels to activate the developer and partner ecosystem, improve awareness and adoption, and build lasting engagement across ADI-owned platforms and external partner communities. Travel is required regionally and occasionally internationally, with an estimated 10% travel commitment.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead the end-to-end delivery of ADI-owned developer communities, from initial planning and audience definition through launch, promotion, events, nurture, measurement, and continuous improvement.
• Build participation across digital spaces such as developer forums and GitHub, as well as through live events, to create a welcoming and trusted developer experience.
• Oversee ADI’s participation in open-source ecosystems, including organisations such as the Linux Foundation and the Zephyr Project, and convert that involvement into developer value.
• Put collaborative community programmes into action by managing playbooks, schedules, and execution plans for consistent and scalable delivery.
• Track the return on investment from third-party communities by setting goals, monitoring activity, and improving how resources are allocated.
• Act as the link between ADI and outside developer communities, feeding insights back to content, tools, and product teams to reduce friction and speed up adoption.
• Manage community follow-up campaigns, discussion threads, and nurture efforts to increase engagement with the ADI Developer Portal.
• Create reporting dashboards, monitor community health metrics, and use data to refine programmes and messaging.
• Coordinate communications and deliverables with external communities and open-source organisations.
• Work across marketing, product, engineering, and regional teams to deliver developer-focused programmes at scale.
• Support on-the-ground activities such as meetups, hackathons, and speaker programmes that strengthen community belonging.
• Use data, technical curiosity, and market understanding to shape community strategy and improve outcomes.
• Build internal support and excitement for developer community initiatives.
