CNCF is pleased to announce its participation in the CommunityBridge, sponsoring three students to work on Kubernetes and CoreDNS projects during the programs pilot stage.
Recently launched by The Linux Foundation, CommunityBridge is a platform that aims to sustain open source projects and through paid opportunities for new developers to join and learn from open source communities.
“We are thrilled to use CommunityBridge this year side by side with our participation in Google Summer of Code. This is a wonderful platform that empowers us to offer paid internships and mentorships all year round for developers.” – Chris Aniszczyk, CTO, Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF)
