Notes from contributing to Google's open-source Spanner Migration Tool (HarbourBridge). Where to start reading the codebase, where the load-bearing logic lives, and the parts that look simple but aren't.
Notes from integrating OpenTelemetry into airshipit, an open-source bare-metal Kubernetes lifecycle project with contributions from Ericsson, AT&T, Microsoft, and others. The hard part wasn't OTel; it was making distributed traces useful across foreign code.
The azure-service-operator project lets you declare Azure resources as Kubernetes objects. Notes from the multi-vendor collaboration shape: how decisions got made, what slowed us down, what shipped despite it.

What it actually takes to build a unified cloud API library — and why "write once, run anywhere" still doesn't quite work, even for the patterns where it almost does.
A recruiter spends 90 seconds on your GitHub before deciding to talk to you. What they're looking for; what makes them skip; what signals matter more than the README.
