Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolKatie Gamanji is a Principal Engineer based in London with 7 years of deep experience in cloud-native platforms, Kubernetes, and infrastructure tooling, currently shaping platform strategy at Apple. She blends hands-on platform engineering with public-facing leadership—frequent keynote speaker, CNCF TOC and TAB member, and creator of foundational learning like the KCNA exam and a Udacity Cloud Native course. Katie has a proven track record launching and refactoring production Kubernetes ecosystems at large enterprises (Apple, American Express, Condé Nast) and driving adoption of operator frameworks, GitOps, and service mesh patterns. Her work spans technical governance, ecosystem advocacy, and developer enablement, notably leading CNCF end-user initiatives and building the End User Lounge to amplify practitioner voices. Less obvious is her knack for turning community insight into tangible products and exams that lower the barrier to cloud-native adoption while influencing project acceptance and interoperability across the CNCF landscape.
