About the Autistic Techie podcast

Autistic Techie is a podcast for neurodivergent professionals in tech—engineers, designers, PMs, and more—who think and work differently. Whether you're autistic, ADHD, dyslexic, or otherwise wired in a nontraditional way, this show explores how to navigate the tech world on your own terms. Hosted by an autistic tech lead and self-advocate, each episode dives into self-advocacy, communication, career growth, and the lived experiences of neurodivergent technologists. Everyone’s brain is different—and that’s the point.

Your host Shea Belsky interviews guests from all different kinds of workplaces, from huge enterprises to startups and self-run businesses. He'll provide personal insights from his own experiences to empower you to be a more meaningful self-advocate in the workplace.
