- Leadership and service in developer communities.
- Strong technical writing skills demonstrated via blog posts and other written work.
- Strong and diverse engineering skills - if you were writing code full time, you'd be a great performer. You also have a finger on the pulse of current development technologies across several platforms.
- Social and hustling skills - a lot of great connections and opportunities are discovered simply by getting out and talking to people. This is something you should be able to do well.
- Public speaking experience or aptitude is essential for inspiring developers. A developer evangelist needs to deliver presentations that are effective and respectful of an audience's time and attention.
- Friendly and approachable people do well as the teachers and mentors we're looking for.
- Willingness to travel to anywhere our developer communities live, and stay productive and professional on the road.
