The Node.JS language team is responsible for the success of Heroku developers building in Node. They are part of the broader “languages team”, a group of developers with similar language-specific responsibilities and shared infrastructure.

A language team is responsible for the success of their language on the platform, including varying degrees of

 * building core language-specific features such as the “build pack”,
 * working within the community to improve projects upstream to provide a better experience for Heroku users,
 * implementing support for and document Heroku product improvements for that language's community,
 * supporting existing and prospective customers through outreach and support,
 * language-specific documentation and content, and
 * marketing responsibilities such as attending and speaking at conferences.

To be successful in this role you should be intimately aware of the current idioms and best practices for development, the direction the community is going, as well as the more common bad habits people have. Recognition within the community through authorship of a well-recognized community tool or service and/or a history of conference speaking are desirable.

You should be prepared to interact directly with users via email, at conferences, and during occasions such as office hours. We welcome people who prefer to work remotely for this position, though we are headquartered in San Francisco.
