- Engage with our in-person and online communities (e.g., Vonage Developer Slack, Reddit) to understand their needs and collect feedback on improving our developer experience.
- Collaborate with Product, Engineering, Marketing, and other colleagues to improve our developer experience, source great content ideas, and coordinate events.
- Experiment with emerging technologies, languages, and frameworks to find new ways to help developers succeed with our APIs.
