Michael Aglietti is a seasoned developer relations leader with 11+ years of experience building developer programs, technical content, and communities across AI/ML, IoT, and enterprise platforms. Currently Head of Developer Relations at GridGain, he has a track record of scaling OSS and commercial ecosystems—from growing ThingWorx to 35,000 developers to relaunching developer portals at Akamai and thatDot. He combines hands-on technical writing and docs migrations (e.g., Paradox to MkDocs) with product-facing advocacy to shorten developer onboarding and influence roadmap decisions. Michael repeatedly bridges product, growth, and engineering teams to turn customer feedback into measurable adoption programs and instrumentation-driven strategies. He’s comfortable leading diverse teams (DX, community, technical writing, UX) and has practical experience building marketing and analytics stacks to quantify developer journeys. A former Army mechanic turned long-time systems engineer, he brings uncommon operational rigor and a maker’s mentality to developer experience work.
