Very interesting story although I wonder how effective this would be outside of a large corporation. The author never said what Saul actually did or produced.

He was business development. I really don't know what they do, talk about business stuff?

In my limited experience, in tech companies, they tend to work just above project managers and shape product development and direction, by interacting with clients and the industry at large. But this is still a rather vague idea of what they actually do all day. Isn't that like most developers' impressions of managerial jobs?

It's kind of like sales, but instead of directly selling to customers you are pursuing partnerships with other companies.

Ah, missed that. It was mentioned in the first paragraph.
