  • Proactively analyze potential performance bottlenecks across the Konflux stack (including dependencies like etcd, networking, storage) and recommend optimization strategies.
  • Translate strategic goals and identified gaps into actionable tasks (e.g., Jira epics/stories) and work with teams on prioritization for capacity planning, cost optimization, and testing implementation.
  • Clearly articulate performance findings, strategy documents, and recommendations to technical and non-technical stakeholders.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
