Longer Bio

Adam Gordon Bell is a software engineer and Community Engineer at Pulumi (since November 2024), where he focuses on developer communication — writing, recording, and live demos that explain how infrastructure as code tools actually work.

He’s the creator and host of the CoRecursive Podcast, launched January 2018. Over 8 years and 120+ episodes, the show has built a steady audience for long-form interviews with the people behind well-known systems — SQLite, PowerShell, Mercurial, Chef, and others.

Before Pulumi, Adam was Director of Developer Relations at Earthly Technologies (2020–2023), where his technical writing on build tools and developer workflows regularly hit the front page of Hacker News. Before that, he spent three years at Tenable (2017–2020) building cloud and container security tooling in Scala. He was a founding engineer at PathFive (2014–2017), and earlier worked at Operitel Corporation (2008–2011, acquired by OpenText).

Working remotely since 2011, from Peterborough, Canada.
