Cloud Booster Program

Welcome Daan, Lúcio, Maan, Daniël and Justin! 

Today, your Google Cloud journey at Xebia has started! On this site, we’ll gather all the information you need. Think about the program for the upcoming weeks, the trainers who are involved, and other important things!

We’re enthusiastic, but do you know who is really happy that you guys started?…👉🏻

Edit

We are very excited to announce our new initiative; The Google Cloud Booster Program.  It is an exciting hybrid program for software engineers who are eager to gain knowledge of the world of cloud computing. Through workshops, training, and certifications, we aim to develop passionate and ambitious cloud engineers, until they are ready to work with our clients. The new Booster Program was a group initiative started just as an idea to find and develop new talent. Now, it has flourished in a complete program with a clear goal in mind.

“ In 6 months I am hoping to see 5 or 6 new happy cloud engineers, that have integrated into the company and have success with our clients,” said Annemieke Stigter, coordinator of the Cloud Booster Program.

This is a win-win for both the organization and the engineers selected to be part of this journey. Thanks to our partnership with Google, we are able to welcome and train new talent, increasing our authority and our effort within the cloud community. This is a great initiative for Xebia as it allows our own Cloud engineers to become trainers and authorities in their field. And of course, it is always beneficial to acquire driven and passionate people who fit well with our culture.
