    Getting Started with the Linux Foundation: Pathways for DevRel Practitioners

    The Linux Foundation (LF) is home to world-class projects like Kubernetes, PyTorch, and Linux itself. But beyond code, it also fosters an ecosystem of working groups, programs and open collaborative initiatives where DevRel practitioners can contribute, learn, and strengthen their profession.

    In this talk, Ana Jiménez, Senior Project Manager at the Linux Foundation, will showcase some entry points for DevRel practitioners involved in domains such as security, AI/ML, or open source strategy. She will also introduce the LF DevRel Foundation, a new initiative where participants collaboratively create resources (definitions, frameworks, and shared artifacts) that help elevate the practice of Developer Relations.

    This session is designed for newcomers who want to learn more about how their DevRel skills, whether in community engagement, product advocacy, education, or technical support, can fit within the Linux Foundation’s ecosystem and to discover communities where they can get involved.
