What I'm looking for

I'm seeking Developer Relations roles at product-led companies where I can grow developer ecosystems, create technical content, run events, and influence product roadmaps in collaborative, developer-first teams.

I am a Developer Relations professional with 5 years' experience building and scaling technical communities, creating content, and supporting product adoption across AI, SaaS, and cloud platforms. I have hosted 30+ developer meetups, grown a Discord community from 667 to 2,000+, created 50+ developer videos, and impacted over 10,000 attendees through events and livestreams.

I partner with product and solutions teams to drive integrations and surface developer insights, co-led strategy for large hackathons, and built learning resources like the Botpress Learning Center. I combine hands-on technical skills (Remix.js, Next.js, TypeScript, Python) with community programs, content, and technical advocacy to empower developers and influence product roadmaps.
