Who are Tyk, and what do we do?
Tyk is the leading, cloud native API and service management platform powering the security, stability and scalability of API-first businesses. We’re changing the way that organisations connect any number of their systems and services.
Whether internal, external, public or highly encrypted systems, Tyk helps businesses drive value across the retail, finance, telecoms, healthcare, or media industries (to name just a few!) If you’ve banked online, used an app to check the news, or perhaps even driven a connected car, API’s, and by extension, Tyk, make that possible.
Founded in 2015 with offices in London, Atlanta and Singapore, we have many thousands of users of our B2B platform across the globe. Brands using Tyk range from small start-ups to global brands like the Financial Times, Capital One, eBay, and Starbucks. We have a varied user base hailing from every continent even Antarctica.
Our Mission
The internet started by connecting mainframes, by the end of the 20th-century 600m desktop and laptop computers exchanged email and web traffic. Today around 15 billion ‘things’ are connected to the internet, growing at a rate of a billion per year.
Tyk are committed to enabling intersystem and multi-device connectivity in a secure and reliable manner. We’ve started by building an API Management platform but we have big plans, and we’d love you to be part of them.
What can you do with us
You’ll be joining Tyk at a very exciting time. We’ve been growing at an incredible rate - not just in terms of our team size and revenue but also in terms of our product capability. What started off as a simple open source gateway, has now evolved into a powerful full life-cycle API management platform, capable of developing, deploying and managing different API architectures and styles (SOAP, REST, GraphQL). This has earned us the title of Visionaries in the latest Gartner report - and we’re just getting started!
Over the past couple of years, our Marketing team has brought together a group of remarkable people capable of communicating and engaging with our target audience in a fun, focused and effective manner.
So, in order to further power Tyk’s growth and ambition for the future, we’re looking to recruit a Developer Advocate to help people find, use, and love Tyk.
Your role will be a critical bridge between Tyk and the big, wide world, translating, mediating and signposting just why Tyk is so innovative and exciting. Ultimately your success will be measured by the impact of your work on product revenue and awareness of Tyk.
