Welcoming Nicolas Fella, KDE e.V.'s new Software Platform Engineer
Hi everyone, During Akademy 2021, we discussed different positions for "Make a Living in KDE". Today we are announcing the second of the 3 positions described there. Everyone, please welcome Nicolas Fella (CC) will be taking on the role of Software Platform Engineer. Many of you will know Nico already for his work across our software stack. For this contracting position, he will be working with us to help make sure our software infrastructure is a happy place. Given our current state there will be a lot of work related to porting to Qt 6, but we expect it to extend this work into ensuring our offering is a great basis to build your products on (be it apps, hardware, distros, etc). I know it's going to be tempting, but please remember to see this as help rather than "oh great, Nico is going to fix X that I care about" because this is hardly going to be the case, as Nico is one and our codebase is vast. Best, Aleix Pol, KDE e.V. President
