Preface

Hello everyone, I am Evan Lin from the LINE Taiwan Developer Relations team. After more than a year of effort by LINE Developer Relations, I would like to summarize in this article what the entire team has done, and I also hope to make an annual report for the "LINE Developer Community Plan".

According to the original introduction article (Introducing Developer Relations team) written by LINE Developer Relations, the main goals of this team are clearly defined as follows:

  • External Evangelism: Encouraging developers to use LINE's platform, APIs and SDKs to develop attractive and interesting application services. (Encouraging people to make attractive and interesting services using the APIs and the SDK by LINE)
  • Internal Evangelism: Through some methods to enable engineers to grow and hone themselves (Doing whatever our engineers feel difficult to do themselves in making improvements at work)
  • Technical Branding and Hiring: Letting more people know that being a LINER (LINE employees' self-proclaimed name) has many interesting and exciting things. (Letting people know how fun and exciting it is for engineers to work at LINE)

The previous article has clearly defined External Evangelism, and the next step will be to further explain Technical Branding and Hiring.

Article List:

Technical Branding and Hiring: Letting more people know that being a LINER (LINE employees' self-proclaimed name) has many interesting and exciting things.

As a technology-based technology company, LINE requires developers for many underlying architectures and services. However, the brand awareness of LINE's technology is an area that needs continuous effort, so another important task of Developer Relations is to let more developers understand that LINE Taiwan has a considerable number of developers, and there are many interesting job openings here that need the participation of experts from all sides.

Summer Tech Fair

We hope to create more opportunities for technical sharing and cross-border exchanges, and at the same time, continue to recruit outstanding talents to join the LINE Taiwan development engineering team! This is the first joint recruitment Taiwan technology job fair this year, hoping to let more student friends understand the student internship program brought by LINE. "LINE Tech Star Talent Program – LINE TECHFRERSH".

Community Event Co-hosting Invitation (Community Meetup)

This year, LINE Taiwan not only holds community events by itself, but also welcomes various technical communities to hold community gatherings at the LINE Taiwan office. In addition to hoping to have more exchanges with the community, it will also provide LINE internal developers to share relevant development experiences with everyone. As a developer, do you know that LINE also actively participates in welcoming various communities to apply and exchange?

Due to the epidemic, the events in the first half of the year were postponed. In the second half of the year, 5 open source technology community gatherings were held at the LINE office, and we cooperated with many communities, and allowed many communities to understand that LINE also has related development technology engineers, and each colleague has an open attitude and is willing to share.

LINE Annual Developer Recruitment Conference LINE Developer Recruitment Day

LINE Taiwan Developers Recruitment Day is a public recruitment event for developers. We invite outstanding candidates who have passed the online preliminary test to participate in the interview. In addition, we have also planned a full day of product and service introductions, and welcome the developers invited to the interview to come and learn together.

Through this event, more developers can also understand that LINE Taiwan has a considerable number of development positions waiting for experts from all sides to join.

Technical Seminars (COSCUP, DataCon, JCConf, JSDC)

Regarding the technical seminars, the LINE Developer Relations department also participated in JCConf this year, and set up a booth for LINE Taiwan engineers to communicate and discuss with everyone.

We also found that in each exchange, each interaction, in addition to feeling the enthusiasm of LINER sharing, we can also feel the love and curiosity of every developer for LINE services. Everyone wants to explore the technical architecture content of the services they use every day, and the enthusiasm of the engineers' exchanges was also felt in the four seminars.

Conclusion

This is the last article summarizing the results of LINE Developer Relations in 2020. Thank you for watching.

Developer Relations is never an easy road. Developers, due to their own desire for technical exchanges, are still willing to use their free time after work to participate in technical communities to get to know more like-minded people and hone their skills. Therefore, the staff of Developer Relations and Technical Promotion Department (Developer Relations) need more enthusiasm to plan in-depth and meaningful activities to make every hard-working developer have a fulfilling harvest and let everyone exchange happily.

2020 has passed, how many LINE Developer Relations events have you participated in? Let's meet again in 2020.
