Platform engineering is the discipline of designing and building toolchains and workflows that enable self-service capabilities for software engineering organizations in the cloud-native era.

Platform Engineering

:face_exhaling: It took me a while to really understand what I’m actually doing in my daily work — especially while carrying fancy titles like _DevOps_ or _Platform Engineer_….

That’s exactly why writing this blog post was so difficult.

You need to be honest with yourself — and let’s be real: putting your ego aside isn’t easy. Trust me.

I believe it’s an important and relevant topic, but please keep in mind: this is just *my personal opinion*, shaped by my experiences and journey.

So don’t take it as absolute truth. Feel free to challenge it, share your own perspective, and most importantly — keep the conversation going to help the community grow. :raised_hands:
