From Student to SRE That Loves CNCF in No Time - Jacob Valdemar Andreasen, Lunar

A year ago Jacob knew nothing about Kubernetes, Linkerd, or any other fancy CNCF projects. Jacob had been studying Software Technology for two years where he learned to write code and use software design patterns. In his fifth semester, Jacob decided to try something new and joined Lunar as a Site Reliability Engineer for a five-month full-time internship where he contributed to CNCF projects and learned to develop and maintain a GitOps based Kubernetes platform. By constantly questioning his knowledge and pushing his boundaries Jacob steadily learned how to navigate the CNCF environment. Now, 1 year and 6 months later, Jacob is a Certified Kubernetes Administrator and continues to work at Lunar where he plays with Kubernetes, Flux, Fluent Bit, Prometheus, Backstage, Linkerd, and many other exciting CNCF projects. By following Jacob’s journey we will explore the opportunities and obstacles you face as a student wanting to start their journey towards working as a platform engineer.
