In this episode, we talk to three active leaders who have been around since the very beginning of Kubernetes. We explore how Kubernetes has changed since its inception, with a particular focus on current efforts in Open source Kubernetes to support AI/ML style workloads.

Maciej Szulik is currently taking a seat in the Kubernetes Steering Committee. He’s also leading Special Interests Groups responsible for kubectl, workload and batch controllers. Maciej has been contributing to Kubernetes since the early days, jumping from one area to another where help was needed. He authored the first version of audit and helped shape its current one, as well as touched multiple other places in apimachinery. He was also responsible for designing and implementing Job and CronJob controllers. In kubectl he was responsible for the plugin mechanism and several major refactors to simplify the code. Since May 2024 he joined the ranks of Production Readiness Review (PRR) approvers helping ensure high production standards for the future of Kubernetes releases. 

Clayton Coleman is a long-time Kubernetes contributor, having helped launch Kubernetes as open source, being on the bootstrap steering committee, and working across a number of SIGs to make Kubernetes a reliable and powerful foundation for workloads.  At Red Hat he led OpenShift’s pivot onto Kubernetes and its growth across on-premise, edge, and into cloud.  At Google he is now focused on enabling the next generation of key workloads, especially AI/ML in Kubernetes and on GKE.

Dawn Chen has been a Principal Software Engineer at Google cloud since May 2007. Dawn has worked on an open source project called Kubernetes before the project was founded. She has been one of tech leads in both Kubernetes and GKE, and founded SIG Node from scratch. She also led Anthos platform team for the last 4 years, and mainly focuses on the core infrastructure. Prior to Kubernetes, she was the one of the tech leads for Google internal container infrastructure -- Borg for about 7 years. Outside of work, she is a wife, a mother of a 16-year old boy and a good friend. She enjoys reading, cooking, hiking and traveling.

We talk with Nikhita Raghunath, Nabarun Pal, and Paco Xu. Nikhita, Nabarun, and Paco have each held various leadership positions related to the Kubernetes project. They talk about their journeys, the various leadership roles they’ve been in, and offer advice for new contributors and those who want to move into leadership in the project.

Nikhita is a Staff Software Engineer at Broadcom. She is currently a member of the CNCF Technical Oversight Committee (TOC) overseeing all technical matters of the CNCF. In the past, she was a member of the Kubernetes Steering Committee, a technical lead for SIG Contributor Experience and has also won the CNCF Top Committer Award. Currently, she is also a co-chair of the KubeCon+CloudNativeCon conference.

Nabarun is a Staff Software Engineer at Broadcom, a maintainer of the Kubernetes project, a member of the Kubernetes Steering Committee and a chair of Kubernetes SIG Contributor Experience. In the past, he was the release lead for Kubernetes 1.21 and has served eight release teams. Nabarun also works actively with the Python community by organizing PyCon India and has been recognized in media publications for his work.

Paco is an open source team lead in DaoCloud. He started to work on container/docker in 2016 and later started to participate in the Kubernetes Community in 2018. He is a current member of Kubernetes Steering Committee and works mainly on kubeadm and sig-node. He is Co-chair of KubeCon+CloudNativeCon China 2024.

This episode is the first in our four-part Kubernetes 10 Years Anniversary special! The focus of this episode is on Kubernetes maintainers who have been involved with the project since its early days, and who are still active today. Featuring guests: David Eads, Davanum Srinivas (Dims), and Federico Bongiovanni.

David is a senior principal software engineer at Red Hat.  He started contributing to Kubernetes before v1 and now serves as a sig-auth tech lead and sig-apimachinery tech lead and chair.

Dims is a principal engineer at AWS, long term contributor to Kubernetes who served in multiple committees for the project. Today dims is in the Technical Oversight Committee or TOC. Welcome to the show Dims!

Federico Bongiovanni is an engineering manager at Google. He started using Kubernetes in the early days at a previous company, and became a contributor about 6 years ago when he joined Google. Today, he’s a Co-chair of SIG-APIMachinery. Welcome to the show! Would you like to tell us more about yourself?
