Tech leadership is often something that people find themselves in because they have excelled as an individual contributor, when people first make the leap it is often very hard for them to adjust to the different work patterns and how to manage a team.
Sean Hawkridge from Makers, runs leadership programs that teach people how to be great tech leaders. In this episode Sean takes me through the common problems that people face when stepping into tech leadership, how people need to think about changing their mindset as they make the transition and if a good leader can be trained? -
Spacelift is a platform that adds workflows on top of infrastructure as code tooling. One of its USPs is that it is agnostic to the underlying infrastructure as code tool, so it can be used with Terraform, CloudFormation, Pulomi, to name but a few.
This concept becomes super powerful in that you can combine stacks written for different infrastructure as code tools into dependency workflows, for example the output of a cloud formation stack could feed into a stack written in Terraform.
Jean-Marc Fontaine, head of solutions & support at Spacelift, takes us through some of the possibilities that Spacelift enables and the different angle of attack they have in terms of solving infrastructure as code pipelines. -

Bert Sinnema, expert in defensive security engineering leads us through the hacking landscape today. He answers why hacking groups are starting to target smaller companies and tells us what smaller companies can do to fight back.
Bert takes us behind the curtain, in the arms race between the two sides of the hacking war. In a world where the weapons used by both sides are constantly getting stronger, what can we do to stay safe? -
Head of mobile from NewDay, Tris Bates, joined Kevin Holditch to give us the grand tour of the world of mobile development, there is a lot more to think about than initially meets the eye.
What is the best way to develop an application for both iOS and Android? Can you use a single code base or is the only option to rewrite the whole application for both platforms? How do you test for all of the device combinations? What about users who use accessibility settings such 2x font? Tris expertly guides us through how the industry is approaching these challenges.
We round up the show on how you go about keeping your application up to date. Is it possible just to push code out and live update your app or do you have to push all releases through the official app stores. Tris shares his vast industry experience on all of these topics and many more. -
When using infrastructure as code tools such as terraform engineers typically run into issues such as execution times, difficulty managing environment promotion and detecting drift when their code base reaches a certain size.
Terramate is a tool that is designed to work with your infrastructure as code tool such as Terraform, to work with you and solve those problems. It also comes with a cloud based observability platform that gives you a lens into what is happening across all of your infrastructure as code environments, even if you are using GitHub runners or Jenkins for execution.
Soren takes us through how you can get started with terramate, what benefits it brings and how it can help you solve some of your infrastructure as code issues. -
Lead platform SRE, Viktor Peacock takes us through what is SRE Engineering and why is it important to have an SRE function? Viktor then goes on to explain how you can use SLOs and error budgets to build your alerts and decide what a team should work on.

In this engaging episode of the Form3.tech Engineering Podcast, we explore the essentials of serverless computing with AWS Serverless Ambassador Bojan Zivic. Our guest sheds light on the types of workloads best suited for serverless environments and dispels common myths, especially concerning long-running tasks. The conversation also dives into the comparison between serverless and Kubernetes, discussing their respective efficiencies in cloud computing.
A key focus is the security aspect of serverless computing, where our expert outlines the unique challenges and best practices. We also touch upon the practical use of serverless in Kubernetes environments, with a special emphasis on KNative applications. Additionally, the discussion references a relevant AWS article that highlights how Prime Video leverages EC2 and ECS for cost and efficiency gains. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in understanding the basics and nuances of serverless technology in a concise, easy-to-understand format. -
Screenloop have built a set of products that leverage modern AI to give an indepth analysis of interviews. In this episode we dive under the covers into what advances in AI have made this possible and what technology Screenloop use out of the box vs what they chose to build themselves. The team at Screenloop go through the architecture of their platform and how the principle of keeping the architecture as simple as possible has lead them to their design.

Michael Kerrisk is a Linux expert and runs a Linux System Programming course, which is a very popular course for Form3 engineers. He started working with UNIX, the predecessor of Linux, and has used this knowledge in his Linux courses. Linux was roughly a re-implementation of the UNIX kernel that had been writted more than 20 years before at Bell Laboratories. His primary area of focus is not the kernel internals, but the kernel interface that it presents to the world, which is the same as classical UNIX. Michael has always had a passion for teaching, having spent years as a university teacher, before starting his corporate career. He joined the Training department of a previous employer and started delivering the system programming course for them. This was the ideal job for him, as it brought together the two things he was passionate about: UNIX and teaching. He is also the author of "The Linux Programming Interface", which is a a detailed guide and reference for Linux and UNIX system programming.

Moritz Johner is a Senior Software Engineer at Form3. He has roughly 10 years experience in the tech industry. He comes from a non-conventional background, having studied Media Technology in University. He has worked in a variety of industries, including web agencies, startups and consulting. He is also a Linux Foundation trainer for Kubernetes. He joined Form3 a year ago and works on providing cloud agnostic Kubernetes experience for product teams.
Moritz's journey into open-source began in 2018 when he was working in consulting and had to build a Kubernetes platform that would work across AWS accounts. Most projects did not support assuming a role in another AWS account, so Moritz contributed this functionality to the various OSS projects he was using. Eventually, Moritz provided this same feature to kubernetes-external-secrets which was the de-facto secrets synching solution at the time. He then gradually became more involved in this project and helped take on the work of merging multiple secrets solutions together.
Lucas Severo Alves is a Software Engineer at RedHat, focusing on open-source. He has a background in DevOps, SRE and system administration. His introduction to open-source was also on the kubernetes-external-secrets project that Moritz was working on. He was excited to focus on a single solution for managing secrets across platforms, which is something that he was focused on as part of his role.
