โš›๏ธInfrastructure Team

The infrastructure team (sometimes referred to as the DevOps team) is primarily tasked with managing and maintaining the infrastructure on which the Vetspire app(s) run.

This involves upgrading versions of tooling we use (such as the PostgreSQL database instances), ensuring the health of the Kubernetes clusters and trying to improve the stability of the application through improvements to the infrastructure, where possible.

Another role of this team is to help facilitate the developers in other teams in their interaction with the infrastructure. This mainly comes in the form of:

  • Training with infrastructure components like Kubernetes to help provide the skills to debug things at the infrastructure level.

  • Providing a well-documented, step-by-step methodology to interact with the infrastructure/infrastructure-as-code to allow them to create the infrastructure required for new features without intervention from an infrastructure engineer.

  • Working together with engineers to continuously improve the continuous integration and deployment of the applications they write.
