https://www.lucavallin.com/blog/tags/podcast Platform Engineer at Xebia, focused on AI platform engineering - the infrastructure behind reliable, observable, scalable AI and cloud-native workloads. I work primarily in Go and Google Cloud, with deep experience in Kubernetes, containers, and end-to-end observability - and a strong interest in networking and lower-level systems work in Rust. My current focus is the platform layer beneath AI: inference serving infrastructure on Kubernetes, AI gateway and MCP connectivity, agentic workload orchestration, and end-to-end observability for GenAI systems. My broader experience is full-stack: strong on backend, with solid frontend and mobile knowledge. I contribute to open source, write on my blog, and pick up the occasional talk, training, or meetup when something interesting comes up. I'm a Google Developer Expert (GDE) and a CNCF Ambassador. For a deeper dive, see my blog. If you're new to open source, check out Verto.sh. For mentorship, I'm on Mentorcruise. Outside of work, activities like photography, motorcycling, playing a handpan and cleaning litterboxes keep me occupied 🐈. en-us Luca Cavallin Luca Cavallin Fri, 10 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT https://www.lucavallin.com/blog/i-am-on-the-cillers-podcast-talking-about-tech-and-hackathons https://www.lucavallin.com/blog/i-am-on-the-cillers-podcast-talking-about-tech-and-hackathons I had a great time on The Cillers Podcast chatting about my journey in tech and hackathons! We talked about organizing hackathons at GitHub, how they foster creativity and collaboration, and their role in inspiring new product ideas. We also touched on boosting development speed with great tools and managing technical debt. Big thanks to the Cillers team for having me!

In this episode, I talk about why Linux containers don't exist, how to use cgroups and namespaces to isolate a process, how to secure the container with seccomp and capabilities, and how to make the right syscall from C to build your own container engine. Thank you, KubeFM, for having me!
