My primary +focus is contributing to open source projects within the Cloud Native space, +but I do not draw the line there and try to improve any and every part of the +stack involved in running containers. + +For more than a year now I have been active in both the Kata Containers and +Confidential Containers communities. I have been working in numerous areas most +recently CI stability, and reviewing contributions (especially Cloud-Hypervisor +related) to ensure the project can incorporate them in a timely manner. Other +areas I've helped with are CoCo releases, CoCo development related to +attestation (TDX and SNP) and bugfixes in Kata (cgroups and others). You may +also have seen me answering questions on slack and helping others understand +the Kata design or debugging issues. + +Microsoft relies on Kata Containers in some of our service offerings, with more +to come. We sponsor both the Kata as well CoCo CI infrastructures. We are also +active in adjacent projects like Cloud Hypervisor. Our goal within the Kata +project is simple: contribute to the security and reliability of the project +and help make it suitable for an even wider range of use cases. Part of this is +taking our learnings from years of running hardware isolated containers and +confidential computing workloads in production and contributing them to the +project, in a way that benefits all users. + +Joining the Kata Architecure Committee will give me a chance to better serve +the community. Kata is a very dynamic and friendly project, and I'd like to +contribute directly to that. I care about making the project more robust as the +codebase grows, improving our test and release processes and making it is +easier for new contributors to join the project. I also want to work within the +AC to see if we can reconcile some of the extensions that the community has +built up around Kata. + +Jeremi
