Ole With is a senior manager and cloud-native infrastructure expert with 15 years of experience building DevOps culture and production-grade Kubernetes platforms across AWS environments. He has led architecture and engineering teams at Sportradar and now helps clients adopt cloud-native practices at Sopra Steria, combining strategic leadership with hands-on contributions to projects like kOps, Karpenter and the Kubernetes cloud-provider ecosystem. A long-term open-source contributor, Ole has improved core Kubernetes tooling—working on external-dns, cloud-provider-aws and etcdadm—bringing practical fixes for credentials, networking (IPv6, ENIs) and certificate management. He is equally comfortable shaping enterprise-wide architecture and diving into low-level controller and test-infra changes, and often focuses on operability and secure automation that few architects implement themselves.
