PROFILE

Michal Sostak

Worked on the solarwinds/swi-k8s-opentelemetry-collector repository to enhance core telemetry collection and improve reliability in Kubernetes environments. Focused on expanding the filter subsystem, introducing new filtering capabilities and reorganizing connector conditions to support more granular metric selection. Developed a dedicated pipeline for filtered-out metrics using Python and YAML, and updated Snap packaging to streamline deployment. Addressed end-to-end test flakiness and normalized metric naming to ensure consistency across observability workflows. Leveraged skills in CI/CD, Helm, and OpenTelemetry to deliver five new features and resolve eight bugs, enabling safer iteration and faster delivery of business value for Kubernetes-based systems.
