Did you know that the community has a Platform Engineering Ambassador program? Just over 100+ platform engineering practitioners and leaders have been learning from each other, connecting with each other, and sharing their ideas and knowledge with over 300,000 people across our audience.

A perfect example of that is across our webinars and articles. In 2025, articles and webinars from ambassadors were viewed almost 80,000 times. With thousands of discussions starting across the community.

If you’re a long time reader of Platform Weekly, you know that 2026 is a huge year for platform engineering. As AI massively accelerates platform engineering adoption within the enterprise, and mature platform teams are growing to absorb new domains like data, security, observability and more, platform engineering is a fundamental discipline this year.

At the same time… the data is in. The maturity of platform engineering as an industry has continued to improve piece by piece. While across the community, there are more questions than ever on the different architectures of a platform (especially as we get more specialized). In justPlatforms for the frontend vs platforms for the backend, platforms for AI/ML workloads, or specialised platforms for observability and security.

These are huge frontiers. And to help master them - we need experts! That is where our Ambassadors come in.

The program is not just where we can put your content in front of potentially 10s of thousands of people, but where we have the opportunity to learn and challenge each other.
