How do you hire someone who has to be the oil in the gears of Development, who has to persuade the whole organisation into working in the smoothest way possible, without actually having any authority?
A good place to start would be this post by @hazelweakly, "So So You Want to Hire for Developer Tooling".

@decoderwheel @hazelweakly This article speaks volumes to me. I'm going to hang onto it for a good while, I think. Thank you for boosting and writing it.
@doofus_canadensis @decoderwheel of course! I'm glad it was helpful
@decoderwheel @hazelweakly I don't understand the connection between the picture and the article. It is indeed the author but it has nothing to do with this specific article and I couldn't even immediately find it on the website. What is going on here?
@simon @decoderwheel the picture is just my profile picture. It shows up with metadata on the source page so that the article "card" has media associated with it. It's required for articles to have a preview blurb thingy. And I want the preview blurb so people can read the title and one sentence summary before clicking :)
