Congrats! Meanwhile, established companies need OKRs with KPIs, sync alignment meetings, consensus over strategy etc.

And they never ship.

Imagine being oncall, waking up at 2am, sifting through unmaintainable overengineered code, and then discover this is the source of the problem.

Indeed. No issues in using it if the complexity requires. But worth considering simpler alternatives otherwise.

Happy to hear. Managed (in AWS/other provider) or unmanaged (self-hosted)?

And even better, finding a job where you can practice. Better than doing it after working hours, already tired.

I'm a principal engineer/architect. Large scale systems, very hands on and broad.

Contracting / Freelancing. Besides that, a small Udemy course focused on how to earn more as a software engineer, improve your quality of life and be perceived as a top of the market engineer.

Do people who use Kubernetes know they don't have to?

Adding metrics to your software so you can see when it works and when not.

So underrated.

Indeed. It's a pity people copy everything from big tech.

Big tech loves this.

They end up with 5 teams working on the same thing.

People fighting for scope.

Not ideal, but it makes sense. They are very competitive envinronments.
