The Pilot
Last week Alex C Berk, Nick Taylor, Amy Dutton, and Tejas Kumar appeared on 99 Dev Problems. This week, Kapehe S, Sarah Guthals, Lawrence Lockhart, James Q. Quick, and Tessa Kriesel talk about balancing responsibilities in DevRel, and a PHP [Tek] discount for you!
This is the first version of a weekly newsletter where the Built for Devs team will keep you in-the-loop around developer challenges, trends, new favorites, and opportunities we encounter in the ecosystem!
Built for Devs is a developer relations agency founded by Tessa Kriesel. Built for Devs provides services that help companies build products that developers love, as well as connect them with their target developers through the Built for Devs hub, where developers come together to build tomorrow's developer landscape.
What's Happening in the Hub
The Built for Devs Hub is our community platform, graciously donated by Gradual, where we host developer events, content, roundtable discussions, developer bounties, and more!
Events
January 30th at 12pm CST / 10am PST
Bounties
We work with a variety of different companies and products and we often need the insights and support of external developers. Bounties are opportunities for developers to dive into new tools, code bases, or solutions and help shape the offering for other developers—while also supporting Built for Devs and their work with developer products. 🫶
No open bounties now, but we're adding some this week!
Roundtables
DevRel Discussion

Stuff We're Building
If you listen to our 99 Dev Problems with Tejas Kumar, you can hear all about it! We're putting together a developer experience benchmark framework and points system so we can build an AI agent to provide a developer experience score based on the benchmark.
Bye Bye For Now
That's it for now, but tell us what you think so we can make this better over time!
