DevRel, Community, Open-source, Life.
Namaskaaram*!
I’m Hari Shanker.
I’m a Community Program Manager and Developer Relations Leader, with 15+ years of experience driving developer-first ecosystems, scaling global technical communities
I love Open Source, WordPress, and the open-web. I strongly believe that a truly free and open internet has the potential to make the world a better place.
I have had a rather diverse career with significant experience in the domains of Retail Banking, Print & Web Journalism, Web Development, Entrepreneurship, Event Management, Professional Blogging, and Education.
Outside of work, I enjoy writing (blogging) as a hobby, reading, and spending time with my wife and our three cats.
* Literally translates to “Hello” in Malayalam – my native language.
