Translate each JD bullet into the artifact you'd actually produce
Think through this situation: "The JD lists 'gather market intelligence from developers.' What artifact and behavior does that actually map to and why do candidates undersell it?" Give the practical answer in plain words.
Step 1 of 2
"Gather market intelligence" is the bullet candidates skip and it's a tell when they do. The role isn't a one-way broadcast. You sit closer to the developer community than almost anyone at the company, so what you hear - the confusion, the feature requests, the workarounds people invent - is a product input. The strongest candidates describe a loop, not a broadcast.
Don't reduce this role to "writing blog posts." Two of the seven responsibilities are pure engineering output (sample apps, automations), one is a research practice and one is a feedback pipeline back into product. A candidate who only talks about writing has read one bullet out of seven and it shows.
