Summary

Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolCully Wakelin is an engineer and product evangelist with 15 years in software, blending product, developer relations, documentation, and engineering leadership from startups to scale-ups. He built foundational developer experiences at Temporal—authoring getting-started tutorials, leading documentation teams, and launching an LLM-based AI developer assistant that became a primary support channel for thousands of adopters. He has driven compliance projects (SOC2 Type 1/2), merged documentation and education functions to improve go-to-market impact, and optimized docs for SEO and discoverability. At Uber and Microsoft he shipped tooling that automated knowledge generation and troubleshooting, and earlier in his career he ran full-stack product engineering and integrations for his own company. Now based in Alberta and adopting a product-focused evangelism role at Resonate HQ, he combines hands-on technical writing and engineering with product strategy to accelerate adopter success. Beyond visible outputs, he consistently reduces support load by turning institutional knowledge into searchable, automated developer-first systems.
