GitHub - jasonumiker/kubernetes-training Contribute to jasonumiker/kubernetes-training development by creating an account on GitHub.

I wouldn't mind an inclusion. I was the AWS Specialist SA for Containers for Australia & NZ for years, worked at Sysdig as a pre-sales engineer on K8s security and observability and now am an IC engineer on Atlassian's Kubernetes platform team.
