[arch-devops] Junior DevOps application - Kristian Klausen
Hi My name is Kristian Klausen (known as klausenbusk on most platforms). I'm currently taking a break from studying and is currently working part-time as a Linux sysadmin/developer and enjoying life. I have been running Arch Linux since late 2012 and ran Ubuntu and Debian before that. Since then I have been contributing to different open-source projects[1][2], often as drive-by patches, and I maintain my own little open-source project flathub-stats[3]. At work I have been installing and maintaining the Debian infrastructure and digital signage solution (also Debian) since ~2015, as part of that I also backported a few Debian packages in ~2016[4][5]. We also use k8s (kubeadm on Debian servers), Docker, GitLab CI, PHP, shell scripting and I got a lot of my experience from that job. My more direct involvement with Arch started in late July 2020 when I joined #archlinux-devops and "complained" about something and svenstaro then decided to create a GitLab account for me[6]. Since then I have been contributing to the infrastructure project[7], often mail, Keycloak or terraform related changes. In the same period I also contributed to the arch-boxes project[8] and basically refactored/rewrote a big chunk of it. I don't have a lot of reasons why I contribute to open-source, basically it is fun and I enjoy contributing (and often I need the feature/issue fixed). The same applies for my arch contributions, but it wasn't just a single "drive-by patch" this time, which is probably due to the community factor and that I find infrastructure work interesting. If I become a Junior DevOps I hope I can ease the burden on the existing team, by being able to work on issues which requires some kind of access[9] and help with day-to-day maintenance. Among other things, I hope to help with the mail related stuff[10](I have been running my own mail server on Arch for a few years) and just general infrastructure stuff (nginx, monitoring, networking, you name it).

While technically not really part of the requirements we set ourselves for Junior DevOps [0], I suggest a discussion period of 14 days upon which Kristian will be made a Junior DevOps unless someone brings forth a good reason why that should not happen. That said, I do confirm my sponsorship. [0] https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/infrastructure/-/blob/master/docs/bec...

I wanted to add that I've very cursorily worked with Kristian, but he's clearly a great asset when it comes to getting stuff done™. I believe he didn't mention, but he was also involved in archlinux docker's migration to gitlab and the automation of the build pipeline (which, frankly, made my life so much easier). Although I can't sponsor Kristian, I'm excited to see the devops team growing with new and committed members. -Santiago

+1 on the 14 day discussion period. However, I don't have any reason why Kristian shouldn't be part of devops. +1 from me (even though jelle didn't confirm his sponsorship yet). Regards, Giancarlo Razzolini
