Episode notes

I think I often take an outside in approach when it comes to a lot of technology. My first question is, well, how will it be functioning? Because that can change how you build it. In my mind, and what I've learned is a lot of people don't think that way. They just go, let's build it, and it will just work with whatever we have. It also helps with being able to empathize with customers and partners.

In this episode of the State of Developer Education podcast, Jon speaks with Julie Hubschman, Senior Product Manager of Developer Experience at DriveWealth, the pioneer of fractional equities and embedded investing, a visionary technology company empowering more than 100 partners around the world to engage their customers. Prior to this, she was the Developer Relations Lead at Gusto, Partnerships Engineer at Pinterest, and a Software Engineer at Microsoft!

Join them as they discuss the potential ramifications and risks of building certain code; why developing skills in other areas of education can help you as a developer; and how hackathons can a useful way to build relationships with companies and other developers. They also discuss some of the issues with spamming and how to best overcome them.
