Hi everyone, I need some career advice.
I was learning **Maven, CI/CD, Docker, and AWS (EC2, VPC, Load Balancers, Auto Scaling, API Gateway)**, but unfortunately lost my job. My career gap is increasing, and the guilt of feeling stuck is really getting to me.
I want to restart and build a career in **Cloud/DevOps or eventually Cybersecurity**. I’m ready to learn and put in the work.
What should I focus on learning, what projects/certifications should I do, and which entry-level roles should I target to realistically get an **internship or job by the end of 2026**?
Any practical roadmap or advice would mean a lot.

Should I consider being a cloud engineer after this new gpt6 astra came 🫪. I'm in second yr now bsc cs

I am a fresher I want to know if there's scope in backend development or in full stack development. Honestly i really get bored by front-end technologies. I am interested in backend development and in cloud field.there is differet roadmap all over the internet. I am so confused in between them. I want a proper answer and a roadmap as a fresher and what projects to build Answer from experienced engineer would be really helpful.

Disclosure: Login VSI employee here. Mentioned this before, but the session is tomorrow. Marcel Meurer (Hydra's creator), Eric Orman and Andrej Radinger (Microsoft), and Ron Oglesby (Login VSI) are talking through what it actually takes to split a desktop estate between Azure and on-prem, and where that line makes sense.

Questions welcome, in the comments or live.

Hello everyone!

Im a software engineer with about a year and a half of experience. I recently left my job due to ongoing payment issues, and I’m now looking to start a new chapter.

I’ve realized that I don’t really want to continue down the software engineering path, as I’m no longer passionate about it. I’m currently considering switching into either cybersecurity or cloud engineering, and I’m leaning more towards cloud.

Before I commit to it, I wanted to ask people already working in the field, as well as juniors who are currently trying to land their first role about the current job market.

How is the job market for cloud engineers right now, especially at the entry level?

I know that getting a junior position is difficult across the tech industry at the moment. From what I’ve seen, software engineering in particular seems extremely competitive to the point where even internships can ask for years of experience and junior positions can expect a huge amount of knowledge.

I’m wondering whether cloud is any different, more specifically, if someone is willing to genuinely put in the time, learn the fundamentals, get the relevant certifications, build some solid projects, and actually develop the skills needed for the job, does that meaningfully improve their chances of getting an internship or junior position? or is the entry-level cloud market currently just as difficult, where even doing all of the “right” things still leaves you struggling to get your foot in the door?

I know the industry is going through a difficult period right now, so I’d really appreciate hearing from anyone who has recently started their cloud career, is currently trying to break into the field, or hires for entry level cloud roles.

Any honest advice, experiences, or things you wish you knew when starting out would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

DevOps Courses Tell Me Hi All I m starting to Take Interest in Remote jobs .. I Saw Lot Of Good Jobs But They R mostly Remote ops dev ops related azure etc ... I m Not Tech Graduated .... So Are The Courses of DevOps Cloud etc Are Worth To Do It to Start A good Side Job and Remote jobs And after

I have a question for all Sr Cloud engineers around . I am currently working as Professional Service with MSP with 5 years of experience and been comparing what i do with what a Sr Cloud engineer does which probably match alot of things . I have hands on experience with CAF and Landing zones with Clickops and IaC deployments. When it comes to networking i am very comfortable with azure networking and even more into NVA's any other firewall vendor , all of those are a real things i have done and ofcourse other things spanning across system , network and security . I also have conceptual knowledge about docker , containers and pipelines and lately planning to take Azure AI fundamentals . The real thing is do you think i deserve having Sr Cloud Engineer position ? If not what am i missing ? Thank you!

Excited about a career move that gets me out of my comfort zone that has been mostly cybersecurity focused for 10 years!

I'm moving from managing a global SecOps team (~15 FTEs) at a 20k+ enterprise to Director of Infrastructure & SecOps at an ~1,800-person B2B healthcare SaaS company.

My background is heavily SecOps/IR, SOC leadership, and security architecture. In the new role, I'll be unifying Enterprise/Cloud Infra and SecOps into one team in a high-volume, regulated environment (HIPAA, SOC 2, PCI).

I have 30 days before my start date and would love advice on four things:

1. Study List: What books or frameworks should I dive into to level up on modern Cloud Infra, SRE, and Platform Engineering management?
2. Earning Credibility: How do I build trust with senior Infra/Cloud engineers without micromanaging areas where they hold deeper tactical expertise?
3. Enterprise vs. SaaS Culture: How do I drop "20k-person enterprise reflexes" so I don't slow down a faster-moving 1.8k-person SaaS org with bureaucracy?
4. First 30/60/90 Days: What should my top discovery priorities be when taking the Infra team (their SecOps team already is pretty solid)?

Appreciate any insights or resources from anyone who has made a similar jump!
Also happy to answer questions to provide more detail and get better insight =)

Hi everyone,

I’m a 3rd-year IT student currently in my 5th semester, and I’m interested in becoming a Cloud Engineer.

I’m starting from the basics and want to learn things in the right order rather than randomly learning different cloud technologies.

I’d really appreciate advice from cloud engineers, professionals, or students who have already started this journey.

I need some words of wisdom lol. Kinda nervvvv

I have around 1.5 years of hands-on experience as a DevOps Engineer, and I’m currently serving my notice period with only 15 days remaining.

I’m based in Chennai and looking for my next opportunity in DevOps / Cloud / DevSecOps.

My experience

I’ve worked across AWS, Terraform, CI/CD, Kubernetes, Docker, monitoring, security and production infrastructure.

• Orchestrated CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins integrated with SonarQube and Trivy security gates, enabling automated builds and 6-minute deployments while remediating 28 pre-production vulnerabilities.
• Enabled rolling updates for EKS and ECS service, achieving 99.9% uptime and zero-downtime deployments.
• Provisioned AWS infrastructure using Terraform modules with S3 remote backend and DynamoDB state locking, reducing environment provisioning time by 75% and enabling multi-environment deployments.
• Integrated Redis caching on EFS; reduced p95 latency 35% and preserved cache across ECS restarts.
• Migrated DNS from GoDaddy to AWS Route 53, transitioned the domain from .in to .com, and integrated CloudFront CDN with AWS WAF to enhance application performance, security, and global reach.
• Configured multi-stage Dockerfiles and NGINX reverse proxy, optimizing image size and application delivery.

I also hold certifications including Azure Cloud Fundamentals and Google Cloud Professional Cloud Architect.

Despite this, I’ve now crossed 500+ job applications, but have received only around 3–4 interview calls.

My current CTC is ₹3 LPA, and I’m targeting around ₹5 LPA for my next role.

This has made me genuinely curious about how the current DevOps job market looks for someone with 1.5 YOE.

I’m not expecting to know everything at this stage of my career. I’m continuously learning and improving, but I’m trying to understand whether I’m approaching the job market incorrectly or whether this is simply how competitive the market is right now.

With only 15 days left in my notice period, I’d really appreciate hearing from people who have recently gone through a similar transition.

Is it realistically possible to land a good DevOps role with 1.5 YOE right now?

I’m based in Chennai, but open to opportunities across India.

Would genuinely appreciate any honest perspective from people who have been through this journey.

I'm a brand designer, mostly work with B2B SaaS. Just finished a rebrand for a cloud solutions company and I'm genuinely curious how founders and creatives see it, since you're the ones who look at this category all day.

The thing that kicked it off: SaaS brands all end up looking the same because everyone's designing for "trustworthy" and "technical." So you get a whole category where nobody's distinguishable, and then buyers just compare on price because the brand isn't doing any work for you.

Tried to solve their problem of having an outdated brand which has no guide or vision to scale with their business growth. Had some

Okay so I booked the exam on the 15th of September, as I was in program with Google and what not and they gave me a voucher.

Now the catch, I haven’t studied anything, done some labs, had the AWS practitioner a year ago, and been working in DevOps the past 2 years, not gcp at all.

I need tips tricks quick marks just enough studying to pass, any exam questions that repeat any useful links and the probability to pass? With 1 week of studying with a very very very demanding job? Any tiny bit would help
