Hi, i am Martin. I am an architect at the Kadaster in the Netherlands. A little over 10 years ago we created this . This enabled the Kadaster to start its Agile and later DevOps journey.

👋 Hello, team! I am Arun Gantagoru - Architect, developer and Leader of a Platform Engineering team

Hello Everyone, I am Prateek. I have worked with a diverse set of engineers and stakeholders to build multi-cloud platforms from scratch capable of onboarding and operationalizing variety of workloads using Infrastructure as Code (primarily Hashicorp Suite). Since the past year I have been focusing on CNCF projects like Backstage, Crossplane, Kubevela, Open Policy Agent to build platforms based on OAM/PAWS. Excited to be part of this community to be able to learn and share.

Hii there!! Myself Sitesh. I work as an Sr Devops Manager @plivo. I have experience in managing large scale platform to building complex in both onprem and cloud. For me its all about learning and collaborating.. So what could be a better platform than this 🙂

Hi! Years ago I started out as a software developer in telecom, but always ended up spending lots of my time making the rest of the team more productive with automation, etc. As it happens, there’s a lot more to building a software application than just writing the code, and that’s what I came to specialize in. People started calling it things like “release engineering”, “devops”, “developer productivity engineering”… But, basically, I make making software easier by reducing friction and pain. Cheers!

Hi everyone, I’m Laura nice to meet you 😊 my team are just beginning to transition from a more SRE focus to platform engineering, so I’m excited to learn from this community and also share when I can about our journey and learnings. Happy Friday!!

Hi folks, great to meet you all, I'm Samit and I've currently working as a Platform Engineer for a UK based company called Gousto. Looking forward to learning lots from you all, in particular security and DevSecOps practices 🙂

Hey folks, I’m Sergio nice to meet you! I’m currently moving and creating the Platform Engineering role on my Company (Oliva.health). It is a pleasure to connect with you, I’m based in Spain!

Hi all. Great to meet everyone. I’m currently a network engineer that’s just very very interested in platform engineering and slowly transitioning my career to that direction. Looking forward to learning from others already doing this work!

Hi everyone, it's nice to meet you all. I'm a junior software engineer and currently trying to pivot to a DevOps / SRE role ( not sure which one ). To be honest, I'm still unaware of their differences. In my way to finding this out, I came along platform engineering concept, ending way more confused than before 😅. I hope this community can give me the keys to find my path. Thanks!!

wasup, platform engineers. I’m Viktor Gamov from Kong. I was speaking at the Platform Engineering meetup yesterday about the Service Mesh pattern for building and operating microservices (In case you missed it, the recording is in the thread https://platformengin-b0m7058.slack.com/archives/C02DF3KKNES/p1668111647710529)

Hi everyone, my name is Maverick and I attended the seminar. Really enjoyed it…

Hi, everyone, greeting from Northern California. My name is Andy Xu and I am running software platform team in Latch (latch.com). My team is responsible for cloud backend, data platform and SRE functions. I am a strong believer that one size doesn’t fit all when it comes to platform engineering. Very excited to learn how to build the right platform teams and solutions in various organizations.

Hey platform engineers! I’m glad to have have found this community and slack channel. I am working on building a “Rosetta Stone” of IaC for Django + Vue.js applications on AWS using ECS Fargate. I’m building GitHub Actions pipelines that launch the same application infrastructure with CDK, Terraform and Pulumi. I’ll post some more details in this thread, but looking forward to meeting others in this slack group who are tackling similar issues!

Hi everyone 👋 Simone here, I’m working at Onto in the UK where we are accelerating Electric Cars adoption via a very simple all-inclusive monthly subscription model. We are kicking off our first Platform Product so this is why I signed to Slack. This is going to be my fourth time in a platform team (across 4 different companies) and every time I do it slightly better so I’m sure this time we are going to smash it. In case we don’t I’m glad to be able to reach out to you all for advices 🙏🏻

Hi mates, I'm working in Belgium for a bank in the API world. To be more concrete, we are building a robust and scalable platform to manage applications lifecycle from API design, develop, operationals, metrics, etc... until their exposure on a gateway. And everything in our Azure cloud platform using open sources frameworks Happy to share on that subject in the future
