Is it a good idea to include my Kubernetes Operator project on my resume?

Asked By TechGuru88 On

I created a demo Kubernetes Operator called DeployGuard that helps monitor Deployments during rollouts. It uses Prometheus to keep an eye on latency and error rates, automatically pausing or rolling back if certain service level objectives (SLOs) are not met. Although it's not ready for production, it showcases my skills with Custom Resource Definitions (CRDs), controller-runtime, PromQL, and rollout automation. I'm early in my platform engineering career and I'm wondering if this project is worth adding to my resume. What do you all think?

Absolutely, you should definitely add it! Even if it's not a production solution, what matters is that you took the initiative to build something meaningful instead of just piecing stuff together with YAML. That shows real effort and skill.

You should add it, but be honest about what it is. If it comes up in interviews, explain that it's a project that helped you grow. That way, interviewers will see you as someone who's learning and improving.

Yes, definitely include this project!

Yes, go ahead and put it on your resume! Anything you’ve built displays your capability. Just be prepared to discuss its limitations and what you learned from it.

For sure, include it! Just make it clear what the project is and what it's not. A lot of interviewers might think of Argo Rollouts, so if you frame it as a learning experience, that's a great way to approach it. It's all about how you tell your story.
