Episode 169 Caroline Lewko, Co-Founder of DevRel.Agency

Fireside with Voxgig

Caroline Lewko has an immense wealth of knowledge and experience in Developer Relations, to the extent where she’s been involved in codifying some of the now ubiquitous aspects of it, including the evolution of its name! Caroline is the co-founder of DevRel.Agency and according to her, she’s been doing community work pretty much since the day she was born - exactly the kind of thing we love to hear. Though she had a background in tech via telecommunications, this evolved into something a lot more technical in 2001, and she hit her DevRel stride just as mobile and internet devices began to merge. As someone with almost a decade of experience hosting developer events, Caroline is well placed to educate us on facilitating healthy working relationships between the different areas of DevRel. For example, you may be working with a freelance writer to develop some copy, a task which requires extensive back and forth between the writer and your developers. Over the years, Caroline has learned that a bit of hand-holding is often initially required for these connections to form, but once they have, they can form the foundation for future invaluable work.
