๐Ÿ’ผ About This Role

You'll build sample apps, integrations, and demos for Ghost, an ephemeral, forkable, MCP-native Postgres for agents. Your core impact is making Ghost the go-to database for AI agents by shipping code and explaining it to developers. You'll work at the intersection of engineering and developer relations, with a strong bias to ship over polish.

๐ŸŽฏ What You'll Do

  • Build reference implementations that demonstrate Ghost's unique capabilities.
  • Maintain integrations with agent tools like Claude Code, Cursor, and Vercel AI SDK.
  • Create technical content: blog posts, tutorials, videos tied to your builds.
  • Engage in GitHub issues and Discord to unblock developers building on Ghost.

๐Ÿ“‹ Requirements

  • Demonstrated experience shipping public software (open source, side projects, or developer-facing work).
  • Comfort with PostgreSQL (indexes, transactions, debugging slow queries).
  • Hands-on experience with the modern agent stack (Claude Code, Cursor, MCP).
  • Strong technical writing across formats: blog posts, tutorials, READMEs.

โœจ Nice to Have

  • Track record of maintaining open source projects with real users.
  • Existing audience in the AI developer community (GitHub, X, YouTube, Discord).
  • Previous experience as a software engineer, Developer Advocate, or solutions engineer at an infrastructure company.
