Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDoug Tidwell is a director-level technical storyteller who blends a Masters in Computer Science with a BA in English to turn complex engineering topics into clear, persuasive content. With over three decades of hands-on experience across IBM, Red Hat, CloudBees, Redis, Gradle, and now Altinity, he has produced videos, articles, demos, and code that have driven millions of page views and practical adoption. He specializes in developer- and customer-facing narratives—creating campaigns, demo environments, and even a fictional theme park (Coderland) to teach technical concepts. Comfortable working directly with engineering, sales, and customer success, he pairs product evangelism with concrete assets like repos and container images to accelerate adoption. An author of an O'Reilly book on XSLT and a frequent global speaker, Doug’s uncommon combo of deep engineering rigor and literary craft yields content that both educates and converts.
