Developer Research Coordinator (Contract)

About the role

Whether the audience is an experienced developer, a newly minted builder, or a coding agent, there is often a gap between what a team assumes will work and what its users can understand, adopt, and use successfully. MLH’s Developer Intelligence Network exists to bridge that gap.
