Hrittik Roy is a platform advocate and CNCF Ambassador with six years of experience helping startups scale developer communities, content operations, and cloud-native tooling. Currently at Loft Labs, he blends hands-on engineering—contributing to vCluster’s core syncing logic and UX improvements—with content and mentorship to lower barriers to Kubernetes adoption. A Google Venkat Scholar and former Microsoft Learn Student Ambassador, he routinely speaks at global cloud-native events and has a knack for turning deep distributed-systems topics into accessible articles and talks. Based in Kolkata, he’s happiest when coding, writing, or mentoring within open-source communities, and he often pairs UI polish with low-level orchestration fixes—an uncommon mix that improves both usability and robustness.
vCluster creates tenant clusters: fully isolated environments delivered as managed Kubernetes, or as the foundation for Slurm, Ray, Run:ai and inference clusters. Each gets its own API server, CRDs and RBAC, and runs on an existing cluster or standalone on bare metal. CNCF Certified Kubernetes.
