Arsh Sharma is a Senior DevRel Engineer with six years of experience blending developer experience, open source contributions, and technical content creation from Chandigarh, India. He pairs hands-on engineering—contributing to projects like Kyverno, cert-manager, Matrix/Element web UI, and Okteto—with developer advocacy work that included leading CNCF CI signal for Kubernetes 1.25 and serving consecutive terms as a CNCF Ambassador. At Okteto he built marketing-facing technical programs (newsletter, video/webinar series) that measurably accelerated product evaluation, and he continues to create courses and tutorials on cloud-native tooling and local LLMs. Comfortable moving between frontend, backend, and DevOps, he often acts as the “engineer” on non-engineering teams, translating product needs into technical deliverables. A detail people might miss: he’s actively improved CI/e2e automation and testing across multiple projects, reflecting a knack for making complex infrastructure reliably testable.
