What is the Write for the community program?

As a data integration platform, Airbyte is dedicated to providing its users with the tools they need to succeed. That's why we're looking for writers who are part of the same community.
By writing for us, you'll have the chance to share your expertise and connect with other data professionals.

We're looking for two types of articles: data insights and tutorials. Data insights articles are thought leadership pieces that explore a topic or introduce a foundational concept. Tutorials are step-by-step guides that show readers how to build a data product using modern tools like Airbyte. If you're an Airbyte user or client, even better – you'll be able to write tutorials that are specific to our platform.

When you write for Airbyte, you'll also have the chance to showcase your work to a wider audience. Our blog is read by data professionals all over the world, and we're committed to promoting our writers and their articles. So not only will you be sharing your knowledge, but you'll also be gaining recognition and building your reputation as an expert in the field.

Are you the right candidate? At Airbyte, we're always on the lookout for writers who can provide our technical audience with insights and expertise. Ideally, you have previous experience writing blog posts or tutorials for a data engineering audience. And of course, you are familiar with the world of data integration – if you're an Airbyte user, that's even better.

To apply, we ask that you have a topic in mind and a rough outline of what you want to share. We're looking for content that is informative, engaging, and relevant to our readers. Whether you want to share your insights on a hot topic or provide a step-by-step tutorial on a data tool, we're open to your ideas.

Please note that we are specifically looking for writers with data expertise. If you don't have any data experience and haven't written anything before, we won't be able to consider your application.

What is the process?

Application

To apply, simply fill out our application form. We're eager to learn about your experience working with data, using Airbyte, and writing. We also ask that you share a topic and a rough outline of what you want to cover in your piece.

Application review

Once we receive your application, our team will carefully review it to see if your profile and ideas are a good fit for our blog. If we think your article would be a great addition to our publication, we'll be in touch to discuss the next steps.

Agree on a topic

We'll work with you to refine your outline and agree on a final topic that is both informative and engaging. Then, you’ll be ready to start writing!

Review and edit

Once you've written your first draft, our team will review it and provide suggestions to help you make it the best it can be. As a remote company, we understand the importance of working asynchronously to accommodate different schedules and time zones. That's why we typically use Google Docs to collaborate on articles.

Publish the article

Once your article is complete, we'll publish it on our blog and share it with our readers. But that's not all – we're committed to helping you reach a wider audience. That's why we'll also promote your article on our social media channels and newsletter, providing even greater exposure for your work.
