I have an MSc in software engineer...

What topics are you most excited to write about?
Software development and productivity.
This resonates a lot.
One thing I learned a bit late is that many technical people assume good work will eventually speak for itself. In reality, undocumented work often gets treated like work that never happened.
A lot of us are already doing parts of DevRel long before we realize it: explaining trade-offs, translating technical complexity for non-technical people, writing guides, helping users adopt systems, and making tools easier to trust.
The skill is not always missing. Visibility usually is.
exactly. we live in a world that requires visibility in almost everything we do.
Love this! Welcome to dev advocacy!
Thank you so much
A natural shift for many engineers—developer advocacy blends technical depth with communication, making engineering more impactful beyond just code.
yes i agree . That is why i'm building better communication skills
the 'achieved everything, still feel stuck' phase is real. turns out most career pivots are retroactive - you were already doing the new thing
true, progress needs to be visible at some point. Thank you
yeah - the moment you can name what changed usually comes months after it already happened.
Congratulations~
Thank you so much
