Our New Teammate
Our new teammate wants to have roots in a system that matters. They have opinions about containers vs VMs, want to work close to the metal, and would rather spend a day writing automation than three hours repeating the same task 20 times. They are curious and passionate about operating systems, containers, Kubernetes, ansible, interpreters, debuggers, and all the things we use to develop and manage fleets of servers. They view the terminal window as a safe space, a simple gateway to the power of the computer. They speak up when something is out of place, correct the things they can, and coach others to do the same. They understand that no system is perfect, but they want to make every system they work on as smooth and elegant as possible.
