PROFILE
Tomer Newman
Over ten months, contributed to the openshift/release repository by engineering and refining GPU operator CI pipelines for both AMD and NVIDIA, focusing on release stability, test coverage, and deployment reliability. Leveraged skills in CI/CD, Kubernetes, and YAML configuration to migrate deployments from environment variables to declarative YAML, unify workflows, and enable dynamic resource management. Addressed infrastructure challenges such as memory pressure in SNO environments and improved automation by integrating parallel job leasing and post-test diagnostics. Used Python scripting and Go to enhance test orchestration, reduce flakiness, and streamline onboarding for new hardware and software configurations across multiple OpenShift versions.

Jun 1, 2026June 2026 monthly summary for openshift/release focusing on stability and install reliability in SNO environments and AMD GPU operator onboarding. Addressed memory pressure during post-reboot reconciliation by increasing SNO control plane memory from 18 GB to 24 GB, preventing OLM operator pod preemption and enabling InstallPlan generation for the AMD GPU operator subscription. This fix reduces rollout downtime, improves post-reboot reliability, and supports smoother AMD GPU operator upgrades in CI and production reconciliations. Commit referenced: efd5f4f22e5f1f76c98a8b0df7f99e5286b6016a (Increase amd-ci SNO control plane memory from 18 GB to 24 GB).

Feb 1, 2026February 2026: AMD GPU Operator CI and testing enhancements in openshift/release delivering robust parallel CI, improved observability, and broader multi-OpenShift validation. Implemented PCI_DEVICES env var for GPU passthrough, fixed kubeconfig hostname resolution in test steps, enabled leasing for parallel CI jobs, updated must-gather log paths, added AWS edge cluster profile, and integrated AMD CI tests with simplified env vars for multi-OpenShift testing. Also temporarily disabled 4.22 images to stabilize CI while migrating to amd-ci repo-based test execution. This work accelerates feedback cycles, increases CI reliability, and strengthens edge deployment readiness across clusters.

Jan 1, 2026January 2026 monthly summary focused on delivering AMD provisioning and YAML-based deployment/config for AMD testing in openshift/release. Key initiative was migrating deployment from an environment-variable-based setup to a declarative YAML configuration to align with upstream changes, improving deployment reliability and AMD testing capabilities. Implemented provisioning to create an AMD-based machine via REMOTE_HOST and executed AMD tests through eco-gotests, enabling consistent, reproducible validation across environments. This work strengthens CI alignment with upstream AMD CI interfaces and reduces setup complexity for AMD testing.

Oct 1, 2025OpenShift release CI improvements and AMD testing enablement for 2025-10. Delivered two primary items in openshift/release: (1) Fixed CI skip logic so changes to workflows and versions.json trigger only relevant tests, removing unnecessary CI runs; (2) Onboarded rh-ecosystem-edge/amd-ci into the CI system and configured the necessary OWNERS, CI-operator jobs, and Prow plugin settings to enable AMD operator testing on OpenShift. Impact: more accurate CI feedback, reduced resource waste, and expanded test coverage for AMD operators. Technologies used include OpenShift CI, CI-operator, Prow, OWNERS, and versioned test configurations.
