Jan Ramdohr

Cloud and Software Engineer

Hi! I'm Jan. I build systems that solve complex problems. At work, I wrangle Kubernetes clusters and all the various cloud services you come across, shaping them into systems that actually help the devs I work with, instead of drowning them in a mess of configuration files.

I come at these problems from the dev side of things—I was a developer for a good while and, to a certain extent, still am. I spent years as a full-stack dev doing a whole lot of API "plumbing," and then slowly drifted more and more towards optimizing deployments and helping other devs get their code actually shipped.

On the side, I still tackle less complex projects to keep my coding muscles sharp. You can check out my projects by heading back to the homepage.
