Starting my second week as Senior Backend Engineer at Grafana [insert excited gif here]

@CarlBergquist Thanks! 🙇

@KPhoen Nice write up :)

Three years of Grafana dashboards as code – blog.kevingomez.fr/2023/03/07/thr…

@johanpoirier Envie/besoin de changement :) J'ai le sentiment d'avoir "fait le tour" là où je suis, et de stagner. Donc je change pour continuer à apprendre!

@KPhoen Juste une envie de changement ou y'a d'autres raisons ?

Hey! Is anyone hiring a senior/staff-level platform engineer? (remote or in Stockholm) Originally a Go developer, with a deep interest in observability, developer experience (DX), automation and good software engineering practices.

@johanpoirier J'aimerais bien, yep :)

@KPhoen Hello ! Tu changes de job ?

Lately, I've been playing with Grafana dashboards as code (github.com/K-Phoen/dark), Backstage and codemods (github.com/K-Phoen/backst…).

Microservice centric Infrastructure as Code with Terraform at Voi – A good overview of how we work with Terraform, from my teammates in Voi's Platform team medium.com/voi-engineerin…

Codemods in Backstage, yay or nay? github.com/backstage/back…

Another day, another Backstage plugin. This time, to share announcements within your Backstage instance: github.com/K-Phoen/backst…

Very nice tool to figure out Prometheus relabeling rules and what they actually are doing: relabeler.promlabs.com

On Tuesday 5th, @martina_if will talk about Backstage at Stockholm's Developer Experience meetup: meetup.com/developer-expe… (hosted by Voi, with refreshments and free rides included ;))

Better slack notifications for Grafana – blog.kevingomez.fr/2022/06/19/bet…

Next week, the Developer Experience meetup in Stockholm will have its first event! We invite any DX enthusiast to join us and meet the community meetup.com/developer-expe…

@Grummfy C'est plutôt cool dès qu'une entreprise atteint une certaine taille :) L'écosysteme et la communauté sont jeunes, mais très dynamiques!

@KPhoen je connaissait pas backstage, super découverte!

Week-end experiment: indexing Confluence pages into Backstage search engine – github.com/K-Phoen/backst…

Doing a bit of Saturday Open-Source on Dark & Grabana, come and pair with me! twitch.tv/sirpotatis

@gaetanbuellet I don't really know any maintained equivalent that provides the same features :| But if anyone is interested in taking over RulerZ and maintaining it, I'll gladly hand over the keys to the castle :)

We start to use rulerz PHP lib to use DSL syntax for our specification needs. So someone know something like that but more maintain ? ping @KPhoen ?

Building awesome automation is your thing? You care deeply about Developer Experience? Want to work with amazing colleagues? (a bit of self-love here :D) Then search no more and come to work at Voi as a Developer Experience Engineer! jobs.voiapp.io/jobs/1344779-b…

After almost two years at Voi as a Platform engineer, I'll be focusing on Developer Experience. Iterating on our engineering portal (powered by buff.ly/3HoupC0), improving our tooling, increasing observability,... Boï it's going to be fun! And yes, we are recruiting ;)
