Sarah Jane 'SJ' Morris - Developer Community & Travel

Introducing the Compiling! Podcast with Rob Z. and Friends

A quick introduction and explaination of the podcast from Rob Z. Thanks for listening!

Lorinda Brandon - Managing Remote Software Teams & Human History

Lorinda Brandon's mix of pragmatism and optimism inspires me to keep finding solutions to technical challenges that don't neglect the humans facing them. In this episode, we talk about her experiences and thoughts managing remote software engineering teams and the importance of maintaining organizational culture even when our teams are distributed across the globe. This segues nicely into her current pursuit of a second bachelor's degree in archaeology. Why would someone so focused on the future spend so much time peering into the past? Because, as it turns out, we're not so different from the people who came before us.

Tony Blank - DevRel Strategy & Supporting Live Performers

Tony Blank walked into a Colorado hackathon as a street musician, but he walked out hell-bent on becoming a developer advocate. His infectious passion for helping startups and developers has led him to create a set of strategies from which we can all learn. In this episode, Tony takes us through his thoughts on developer relations - where it's been, where it's going, and how to find success - then we launch into his latest cool project, where he applies his DevRel skills toward musicians, comedians, and other live performers.

Sarah Jane 'SJ' Morris - Developer Community & Travel

Sarah Jane 'SJ' Morris is a master of developer community. The empathy she shows developers and the way she advocates passionately for their needs is merely a small reflection of the general compassion she shows toward everyone. Today, we dive into her experiences and thoughts around building and maintaining developer-targeted communities as she shares real-world successes from her current role at HubSpot. We then discuss the joys of solo travel and learn some tips that can help you prioritize planning your next trip.

Adam DuVander - Developer Marketing & Home Automation

Adam is a developer whisperer. He has leveraged his technical background to build a career around helping non-technical people better interact with and understand the developer audiences they target to the benefit of everyone involved. In that sense, we are fellow travelers, and that's probably why I have such a deep admiration for him, his work and his generosity in sharing it. He's also just fun to chat with, which is why I seek him out every time I know we're in the same place at the same time. In this episode, Adam shares his wisdom as we discuss his latest book "Technical Content Strategy Decoded", then describes his very pragmatic adventures in home automation.
