Web3 DevRel: 63 contacts at 52 crypto teams, 36 on 3 channels

By NAUT Research · · 8 min read

63 Web3 DevRel developer relations contacts at 52 crypto teams on NAUT, read 13 November 2026. Logos: 0G, Avalanche, MetaMask, Berachain, Cosmos, Flare Network, Ethereum Name Service, BNB, Uniswap, ZkSync.

Web3 DevRel contacts are easiest to find by searching job titles: NAUT tracks 63 people with a current developer relations title at 52 crypto project teams, read from its database on 13 November 2026. 48 of the 63 have an X handle on NAUT's record, 52 have a LinkedIn URL and 50 a Telegram handle, and 25 hold a head, lead, director or manager title.

Data note. Every count was read from NAUT's own database on 13 November 2026, read-only. A person is counted when their row is live, they sit at a live project company, and their job title contains "devrel", "dev rel" or "developer relation". That text match found 65 people; 2 whose titles start with "Former" were dropped, which leaves 63. "Lead title" means the title contains head, lead, director, manager, chief or VP. 38 of the 63 have their own person page on NAUT, and the list below names those 38. A separate check read the home pages of 6 of the 52 teams (Abstract, 0G, ADI, AIsa, Arkiv and Avalanche): none of the 6 home pages names a developer relations team, so the title on NAUT's record is the person's stated role, and step 3 checks it before you write. The other 46 teams' sites were not read. NAUT Research wrote it.

How to find web3 DevRel contacts in 3 steps

The job is 1 name per team who owns developers: their docs, their hackathons, their grants questions and the integrations they help ship. A BD lead selling developer tooling, a founder who wants their SDK listed in a chain's docs, and an investor checking how a team supports builders all want the same person.

3 steps on NAUT's People tab
  1. Search 3 spellingsType "devrel", "dev rel" and "developer relations" into the People tab: together they matched 65 people, and 2 former titles drop out.
  2. Pick the lead25 of the 63 hold a head, lead, director or manager title, spread over 24 of the 52 teams.
  3. Check the seat, then write36 of the 63 have X, LinkedIn and Telegram on NAUT's record, so you can read 1 bio and write on another.

Step 1: search the People tab for 3 spellings

Crypto teams write the role 3 ways, and a search for 1 of them misses the rest. 28 of the 63 carry the bare title "DevRel"; the rest spell it out as Head of Developer Relations, DevRel Engineer, Developer Relations Lead and so on. Search all 3 spellings, then drop anyone whose title starts with "Former": 2 of the 65 matches did.

Step 2: pick the DevRel lead at each team

This step is how to find the developer relations lead at a crypto project with more than 1 name. A team with 1 DevRel name is a short list. 43 of the 52 teams have exactly 1 person with a developer relations title on NAUT's record, and 9 have 2 or more. 0G has 4, including Will Riches, Head of Developer Relations. Where a team has several, start with the title that carries head, lead, director or manager: 25 of the 63 people hold 1, at 24 teams.

At the other 28 teams, the DevRel engineer or advocate on the record is the person to write to. Open the team's company page as well: it lists everyone NAUT holds there, so you can see who the DevRel person reports to or works beside.

Step 3: check the seat, then write on 1 channel

Read the person's own X bio or LinkedIn before you write, since a title on any database is a claim about the past. 62 of the 63 have at least 1 of X, LinkedIn or Telegram on NAUT's record, and 36 have all 3. Email is on file for 2.

How do you reach a developer relations lead?

  • Lead with the builders you bring. A DevRel lead is measured on developers who ship on their chain, so say how many of your users or customers would build there.
  • Use X for the first touch. 48 of the 63 have an X handle on NAUT's record, so you can read their bio and write in the same place.
  • Use LinkedIn when X is missing. 52 of the 63 have a LinkedIn URL, which covers 11 of the 15 with no X handle on file.
  • Use Telegram for the follow-up. 50 of the 63 have a Telegram handle on file.

What this tells a BD team selling to developers

  • Crypto developer relations sits at chains and infrastructure teams first: 25 of the 52 teams are tagged L1/2/3 on NAUT and 22 Infrastructure (a team can carry both).
  • A combined title is a shortcut. David Chiu at HELIX Metaverse / Hypersonic Laboratories is Head of Business Development and Developer Relations, so 1 note reaches both jobs.
  • 25 of the 63 carry no person page yet; their team's company page is the place to find them.
