In this clip, Lukas Gentele, CEO of Loft Labs, discusses the company's mission to support platform engineers by offering building blocks like vCluster and DevPod to help create customized, resilient, and optimized platforms. Gentele explains how these tools allow teams to balance standardization with autonomy while still adapting to the unique needs of their organizations. Gentele tells us that DevPod has gained significant attention after its launch on Hacker News, and is now in private beta with plans for broader availability next year.

Did you miss last week's #KubeCrash Platform Engineering event? Our COO, Paula Kennedy, has you covered with a recap article! - "Platform Engineering is not new, but one thing that is new is bringing the product mindset internally to infrastructure teams", Charity Majors - "With internal platforms, you’re generally not starting with greenfield, you’re starting with legacy", ?? Areti Panou - "DevOps is not dead, but we have seen the problem of giving too much autonomy to developers. And with autonomy comes responsibility. Teams are getting crushed under the weight of that responsibility", Abby Bangser - "If you build it, they won’t necessarily come, you need to build the platform that developers need", William Rizzo https://lnkd.in/eQqXKd3t

Another great session for Exchange at Department yesterday! I learned so much from Holly Donohue's product workshop on navigating product & tech as a founder. As primarily a software engineer, I typically work with dedicated product managers embedded in cross-functional teams. By the time I get involved, the value of the planned work is already understood, and I'm focused on writing the code to implement the solution. This means I've been somewhat removed from the earlier stages of the process—where product decisions and planning happen. My key takeaways from Holly's session were: - How to write realistic OKRs to keep us at Mariposa AI moving in the right direction. - How to effectively hypothesise and research the assumptions we make about users. - The importance of a shared lexicon for product planning and launches, ensuring everyone is speaking the same language. - A newfound appreciation for the hard work product managers do. I've been fortunate to work with some great ones (Si Lewis, Jura Urbancik ??), and now I feel like I've had a peek behind the curtain! #techmanchester #exchangeprogramme #techfounder #startup
