Top SchoolErin Staples is a Staff Developer Education Engineer based in New York with six years of experience helping developer-facing products adopt better tooling, experimentation, and AI practices. She bridges product strategy and developer empathy—translating field feedback into actionable product improvements while crafting educational content that accelerates the "Aha!" moment for engineers. Erin has driven large community growth and adoption at companies like Orbit and LaunchDarkly, and recently focused on observability and evaluation for AI agents and LLMs at Galileo.
