Staff blogger perhaps?
I've been hired before by companies to take something their engineering team has done and turn it into a blogpost. I can't do graphics, but I can write a mean blogpost about pretty much anything you can think of.
Some posts/articles that came out of such initiatives have gone on to get published in dead-tree magazines or stick around the frontpage of HN for a few hours.
Broadly speaking, if you were doing this as a job job, I think it would fall under "developer evangelist". Your job is to make the company look good to potential hires and API consumers. Do whatever it takes. That involves going to conferences, writing blogposts, drawing graphics, and using freelancer resources to help you out in areas where you can't go. Usually evangelists can do most of the job on their own.
