Summary
Jacek Łakis is a Poland-based Staff Engineer with a decade of experience building cloud-native platforms, SRE practices, and developer experience for companies from startups to Intel. He specializes in Kubernetes, platform engineering, and CI/CD supply chains, with hands-on delivery of multi-tenant GKE/AKS/EKS platforms, Crossplane/Terraform IaaC, Flux/FluxCD-driven GitOps and self-hosted Kubernetes infrastructures. As an owner of LAKIS he contributes open-source fixes (notably a Microsoft provider PR for oauth2-proxy), builds full-stack and microservice systems, and advises on containerizing legacy workloads. He combines systems-design depth—shaped by kernel/container runtime work at Intel—with practical SRE leadership and developer tooling, often automating observability, secrets and just-in-time access across clouds. Based in Gdańsk and grounded in applied mathematics, he brings a methodical, metrics-driven approach to platform reliability and developer productivity.
