Developer Productivity Analyst, DX

About DXDX is one of the fastest-growing SaaS companies in the country, helping engineering leaders build high-performing, productive teams. Our platform delivers actionable insights into developer experience and productivity - empowering companies like Netflix, Uber, Dell, Pfizer, and Vanguard to operate at their best.

DX has grown from a bootstrapped startup into a category-defining company with a customer base that spans some of the most sophisticated engineering organizations in the world. We recently closed on our acquisition by Atlassian, which means more resources behind our mission, faster product innovation, and an even bigger impact for the teams who rely on us.

How we work at

DX:

Companies have all kinds of culture slides. At DX, we want to be very clear about what we care about and how we judge performance. For us, it all boils down to individual mastery, becoming the best at your craft. Those who exhibit this quality will thrive here and be unduly rewarded. We can't control outcomes due to competitors, the economy, decision-makers, etc., but what we can control is doing our jobs at the highest level possible.

How the DX Research team worksThe DX Research team's mission is to advance how the world understands and improves developer productivity. We turn data, research, and real-world stories into actionable insights that help engineering leaders make better decisions and in doing so, reinforce DX as the trusted source of truth in developer productivity.

We sit at the intersection of academic research, industry practice, and product reality. Our work shapes how DX builds its products, how DX and Atlassian talk about developer productivity, and how engineering leaders around the world think about their teams.

How we shipOur guiding principles:#1 goal = deliver insight. Every piece should give leaders something new: an answer, validation, a perspective, or an idea that helps them think or act differently. If it feels obvious or like common sense to our audience, go deeper or find a sharper angle.

Make it worth paying for. If you wouldn't pay for it, they certainly wouldn't either. Push for depth and usefulness. Audience attention is everything; publish something that lacks insight, and you start eroding the trust we've built.

Do the work for them. Go the extra mile to make insights actionable. Provide templates, frameworks, maturity models, and real-world examples that leaders can apply directly.

Get external feedback. For every major piece, we gather feedback from credible industry leaders and practitioners. Outside perspective strengthens our ideas and ensures they resonate beyond our own walls. If all you're getting is light, positive feedback, find tougher reviewers.

The way we write (our voice) is an extension of DX's brand:

Grounded in research. Our product and recommended practices are shaped by what's proven through both published research and what we observe across hundreds of real-world teams.

Opinionated. We have a clear, informed perspective on how developer productivity should be measured and improved.

Transparent and balanced. We're confident in our approach, but open to updating our opinions. We share what we're seeing, testing, and refining along the way.

Clear and concise. We choose our words carefully. Every piece should deliver insight, useful commentary, or recommendations without unnecessary theory or detours.
