# Annika Opitz
Product Owner at STACKIT building open-source Kubernetes frameworks.

## About

Annika Opitz shapes the Kubernetes platform experience at STACKIT. She focuses on building cloud and infrastructure products that scale across massive environments without forcing engineering teams into a single, rigid box.

Her work centers on Kubera, an open-source framework that uses a GitOps foundation to help developers bootstrap tailored Kubernetes clusters. She regularly shares the architectural realities of scaling platform engineering, detailing how to orchestrate managed services and edge clusters across thousands of retail locations while transitioning internal tech into public, community-driven projects.
