I am Ram Samarth B B a 3rd year Computer Science Undergrad, a huge Cloud Native and DevOps Enthusiast. I always love playing around with Kubernetes as feel it is one of the love that I have found it in my DevOps journey . I have built my own Kubernetes Stack Client in GoLang.
I have successfuly completed one year internship as a Backend Developer and a DevOps Engineer at a UK based startup where I have handled the core backend and admin operation using typescript . I also have taken care of the Cloud Deployments and Storage in the GCP.
As far as Python is concerned I am a baseline developer and a Research Intern at Federated Learning Labs where I have contributed an entire federated learning paper code in the Flower FL Framework .

So I love this field where I can learn to always keep my applications at scale , while also applying this at my distributed AI research.

I always love to take LFX Mentorship opportunities and would like to contribute widely to Open Source

[choonho]

Wow, Ram! Your passion for Cloud Native technologies, DevOps, and Kubernetes shines through your experiences. Wishing you continued success in your LFX Mentorship and contributions to Open Source!

[SpringWiz11]

I am Kishan Gurumurthy, a third-year Computer Science undergraduate with a strong passion for Cloud Native and DevOps methodologies. My enthusiasm particularly extends to working with Kubernetes, a facet of my DevOps journey that I find profoundly rewarding.

In the course of my academic pursuits, I have developed a Kubernetes Stack Client in GoLang, showcasing my specialization in GoLang for backend and cloud development. Additionally, I bring practical experience from a year-long internship as a Software Engineering Intern at a UK-based startup. During this tenure, I managed core backend operations and administrative tasks using TypeScript, demonstrating my versatility. I also oversaw Cloud Deployments and Storage across platforms like GCP, AWS, and OpenStack.

In the realm of Python development, I am a proficient baseline developer and currently serve as a Research Intern at Federated Learning Labs. Here, I contributed significantly to a federated learning paper by coding the entire implementation in the Flower FL Framework. This experience has deepened my understanding and application of distributed AI research.

I am drawn to this field as it allows me to continually enhance my skills in maintaining applications at scale, a principle I actively apply to my ongoing distributed AI research.

I am eager to contribute and learn further within a mentoring relationship. Your guidance would be invaluable to my professional growth.

Thank you for considering my application.

Best Regards,

Kishan Gurumurthy

Hey @choonho , aren't there any other available issues to work on that are currently open?

I mostly have free time on weekends, so I'm searching for some. Also, I wanted to ask if, apart from installing and setting up Cloudforet, do we have to do anything else?

Is contributing to an issue required for week-1? I missed both of them, and now they are closed. !!
