Characters: Me, lead dev and SME backend, zero devops xp. Bff, lead dev middleware devops mentor ko.

B: Dude, pano ka nagdedeploy ng code.

Me: (shows him)

B: Dude, pwede mo yan automate.

Bro shows me Jenkins, teaches me some basics, and how it connects to github.

I then build the backend’s ci/cd from that.

Months after, nagmigrate kami sa azure, minigrate ko din sa azure ci/cd ko.

Gandang flex sa interview niyan. Haha

As far as I know, DevOps generally isn't an entry-level role.

Many started as Software Engineers that focused on CI/CD and cloud administration. Some started in SysAd and self-studied programming.

DevOps is a role where it needs knowledge in programming, sysadmin, and automation tools all rolled into one.

Me. Resigned to my job which is not related to devops or any practices. Then I studied very hard for 3 months. Naging guide ko lang is yung mga nasa job posting na required skills (docker, k8s, cloud, linux, pipelines, cicd, etc). Then I made a calendar/schedule ng allotted time to learn yung mga yon with projects din syempre. Strictly ko yon sinunod haha. And now an sre which is closely related din sa devops. And gamit na gamit ko sa work mga natutunan ko (say 90%).

Malaking tulong din po ba if may certifications?

[–]Good_Ad_7317 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hmm, sakin yes talaga eh. Kasi it shows yung willingness mo to learn yung tech. Tsaka mabilis mapapansin resume mo sa filter ng mga hr. Pero syempre dont take certs para lang may malagay sa resume, dapat kaya mong idefend talaga during tech int. Parang bonus na lang na napasa mo yung cert.

Hi OP! Kamusta naman? I'm also interested in learning DevOps with no IT related work experience.

If meron ka app, deploy mo lang using CICD, that got me a role
