Elixir Mentor

Jacob Luetzow

Booking Overview

This is a technology interview podcast focused on Elixir, BEAM software development, developer tooling, artificial intelligence, security, and adjacent engineering topics, with recurring external guests who are founders, engineering leaders, developer advocates, and experienced software builders. PR agencies could credibly pitch technical founders, open-source maintainers, senior engineering practitioners, developer-relations leaders, and experts with practical perspectives on AI-assisted development or application security; booking difficulty is medium because the show favors relevant technical expertise and demonstrated projects over broad celebrity.
