What you’ll do

Educate the world on authorization. This is a new topic for many engineers and building authorization services becomes more challenges as applications get more complex.

Help developers discover Oso. Get the word out on Oso, inspire users and help them adopt it with demos and sample apps, blog posts, tutorials, and videos, plus talks at meetups, conferences and on podcasts.
Be a strong supportive force in the developer community: You are helpful and supportive by nature, and get energy from helping developers solve problems. You’ll engage with users through various channels (e.g., Slack) to help them with their problems. Capture feedback and feed it back to our engineers
