About this listen
In this episode of Velocitea, Emily and Forrest tackle a spicy question: Are we trying to kill Developer Relations? (Short answer: no.) The two unpack how DevRel has evolved from 2019’s conference-circuit celebrity era into something deeper, more technical, and far more human.
They dive into burnout, invisible labor, and what great DevRel actually looks like: bridging product, marketing, and community in ways that can’t be neatly boxed in a company org chart. Along the way: • why the “next Kelsey Hightower” probably wouldn’t get hired today • the difference between DevRel and DevEx (and why the term “relations” makes people squirm) • and who makes it onto their personal DevRel Mount Rushmore.
A mix of inside-baseball humor, empathy, and hard truths for anyone trying to build or support a developer community.
