Matt Barker
President / Co-Founder Jetstack. Open Source EIR
I love working with people who are passionate about what they do. I’m lucky to have a career in technology and Open Source software, where there are so many opportunities to make an impact on the world.
I started my career as an early employee at Ubuntu, leading their OEM business in Asia. After that I joined NoSQL start-up MongoDB, running Public Sector. In 2015 I co-founded Jetstack, a Kubernetes service company best known for creating the cert-manager project which was acquired by Venafi in 2020. In 2021, I was named a top 100 influencer in Open Source by OpenUK.
