Episode notes

Dev rel has, as you know, like many existential struggles over the years to figure out where they fit and what they impact. I think it's very it captures all of the different touch points that you might have with a developer. And it's training, you know, actual introduction to what the technology is.

In this episode of the State of Developer Education podcast, Jon speaks with Tim Berglund, Vice President of Developer Relations at StarTree, a cloud-based software company enabling business customers to derive advanced insights from real-time and historical data. Previously, he was the Senior Director of Developer Advocacy at Confluent, and was also the Vice President of Developer Education at DataStax.

Together, they discuss what has and hasn’t changed in the world of developer education, why hardware feels so magical when compared to software, and why being a teacher and an outstanding developer are two completely different skills. They also get into how our lives can sometimes feel directionless, especially in the world of coding.
