Tiger Data is addressing one of the largest challenges (and opportunities) in databases for years to come: helping developers, businesses, and society make sense of the data that humans and their machines are generating in copious amounts. Tiger Data is the fastest PostgreSQL cloud platform that natively supports full-SQL, combining the power, reliability, and ease-of-use of a relational database with the scalability typically seen in NoSQL systems. It is built on PostgreSQL and optimized for fast ingest and complex queries. Tiger Data is deployed for powering mission-critical applications, including industrial data analysis, complex monitoring systems, operational data warehousing, financial risk management, and geospatial asset tracking across industries as varied as manufacturing, space, utilities, oil & gas, logistics, mining, ad tech, finance, telecom, and more. Tiger Data is backed by NEA, Benchmark, Icon Ventures, Redpoint Ventures, Two Sigma Ventures, and Tiger Global.

At Tiger Data, formerly Timescale, we empower developers and businesses with the fastest PostgreSQL platform designed for transactional, analytical, and agentic workloads. Trusted globally by thousands of organizations, Tiger accelerates real-time insights, drives intelligent applications, and powers critical infrastructure at scale. As a globally distributed, remote-first team committed to direct communication, accountability, and collaborative excellence, we're shaping the future of data infrastructure, built for speed, flexibility, and simplicity.
Senior Developer Advocate (Agentic Postgres) You're a builder who codes with agents every day. You know the difference between Claude Code and Cursor because you live in these tools. You ship demos fast and messy because you understand compound effects matter more than polish. And you get why agents need infrastructure built for them—MCP servers that self-describe, databases that fork in seconds, hybrid search that doesn't require a Frankenstack.
We're building community around "agents are the new developers" before it's crowded. That means weekly SF meetups, daily demos on social, a recipe library of one-shot prompts, and teaching developers how to actually build with agentic tools—not just talk about them.
Reporting to the Head of Developer Advocacy, you'll work directly with our CEO and co-founder to help shape both the product and positioning. This isn't generic DevRel. This is a company-defining role where your voice influences the roadmap, your demos shape developer perception, and your community-building creates the flywheel for Agentic Postgres adoption.
📍 Location requirement: Bay Area — you'll co-host weekly "Agents & Coffee" meetups in SF, give talks at SF meetups weekly, and rep TigerData at conferences globally.
