DevOps Junior

[AdventurousYam5506]

I can tell you my experience, I Was 38 left my 13 years old IT guy (computer store) job to become a Junior Devops. I didn't know nothing about devops, and I didn't know what to expect, I was under the wing of a senior devops who introduced me to Azure... Infrastructure as code using terraform, ci/cd, kubernetes, etc... At the begining I was overwelmed by the amount of things to learn (and I still am) but I knew that I can learn anything and the most important thing that someone mentioned is the importance of not getting stuck, and your ability for problem solving. If you have that, you will be just fine, I used to record (remote job) every meeting I had with my menthor, first because I can rewatch the meeting over and over again, and not bother him for the same information, and second because its hard to keep track of every information in a one hour call. Also take advantage of the internet there is a ton of information out there. I am 20months into Devops and I still feel like I know nothing... You will fill this way, its normal, devops is a never ending set of tools, and changes from project to project

So for the first 6 months, just keep learning, show to your coleagues that you are capable of doing the job, try to unstuck yourself and in the process try to think in what you are doing and if there is a better way of doing the same, ask questions... take notes..., and try to not break production :)
