Thorsten Schaeff

In this episode, we’re drilling more into the vocational aspect of DevRel, with our guest Thorsten Schaeff. Thor has recently become the Developer Experience Engineer at ElevenLabs, an AI Audio research and deployment company, and he’s based out of Singapore, having moved there with Stripe six years ago.

Thor tells us that the common thread amongst his various roles has been the learning and teaching aspects, and he’s been lucky enough to be able to follow his interests for the majority of his career. We agree with him on the point that if you are driven by wanting to help and teach people, then DevRel is the place for you.

We also talk about his multi-modal approach to publishing content. Not only do you need to be targeting all platforms, with both long and short form content, these channels all need to interact with each other as well, and present as a cohesive front.

He leaves us with a lovely reminder of just how rewarding it can be to see someone create something great with a technology you taught them to use.
