Developer Advocate jobs sure seem great!
Sam Julien joins us again this week to talk about what it's like to work as a developer advocate for Auth0. We talk about building community, traveling (back when that was a thing) and how to manage a personal brand. If you're interested in developer relations (DevRel), this is the episode for you!
Sam also has a new eBook that will guide you to a career in DevRel! Check it out at Sam's website.
