After only 13 months at radio.de I will be joining Kubermatic in August 2021. Long story short without going into details there was too much of a (engineering-)culture gap between radio.de and me.

I am now looking forward to become an active contributor in the “Cloud Native” world, working on open-source projects around Kubernetes. In my previous role at finleap connect I had only “consumed” Kubernetes as an engineer running software on it and during on-call duties, including monitoring and basic maintenance. In the application process at Kubermatic I had to write my first controller and I really enjoyed learning a lot about K8s internals.

It’s not yet decided which project I will be joining, but it might be one of the SAP-teams working on Kyma. Kubermatic has teamed up with SAP to contribute to this really interesting open-source project.

Either way I am happy to bring in my Go knowledge and will be constantly improve my Kube Fu.
