About The Role
The Container Platform Team's mission is to build the next generation of Uber's cluster management platform that is secure, reliable, scalable, and highly efficient. At Uber we have a sophisticated infrastructure spanning both data centers and cloud, supporting a diverse variety of workloads (stateless, batch, streaming) each different in its characteristics and requirements. Here are some examples ( Link1, Link2) of the work that we do and some of the sessions we have facilitated at KubeCon( Session1, Session2).
We build solutions to enable applications/jobs to be deployed anywhere in the world with the touch of a button. We build abstractions so that Uber developers do not have to care about infrastructure and infrastructure just works for every application type.
