简化容器化应用程序的部署和管理

I always come to the office on Tuesday and Thursday as this is the day the rest of the team works on-site as well. It is great to work remotely however, it is also nice to have some days where you can collaborate directly with colleagues.

To start my day, I usually start by checking my email and looking at meeting invitations. After that, I take some time to process all my assigned pull requests and prepare for the stand-up meeting.

It is great to see how the team is progressing during the standups and any difficulties with certain tasks are brought up in these meetings. One of these challenges is assuring that the cluster provisioning is performed consistently as it involves a lot of processes like installing operating systems and configuring networking.

I currently work on a project called Prodrive Kubernetes Services (PKS). It is a platform that provides a web interface to run containerized applications. PKS streamlines all the tedious tasks of Kubernetes like provisioning clusters, networking, and configuring storage classes in a few simple clicks.  It is great to be able to work with the latest technologies like Kubernetes which are actively being developed and improved. Recently, I have been working on networking relating tasks like IP assignment to nodes and the automation of cluster provisioning.

Prodrive gives you to freedom to choose the project that you are interested in. It can be anything from embedding programming to web development. Prodrive provides you with the opportunity to grow as an individual alongside great colleagues. Since I joined Prodrive, I have gained a great amount of knowledge and experience.

Progress within Prodrive is achieved with mutual trust and individual responsibility.

Pros and cons

• Working with the latest technologies

• Freedom and flexibility regarding working hours and projects

• Prodrive gym

• Prodrive gaming events are hard to win (Prodrive has too many pro gamers)
