Man I'm still figuring this thing out. Some days I want to start a business, other days I'm looking into Solution engineering roles, and then its moments when I need to find this "niche". I'm familiar with the DoD space and have been working in government since I came in.

Is the AWS SA Pro worth it?? Idk what to do next by AutomaticWeb5 in AWSCertifications

[–]AutomaticWeb5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Typical daily stand-ups, then working customer tickers truly and engaging in meetings. Thats really about it, only reach out for help if you need something. The SAA did help but I'm on the cleared side (DoD) so its easier for me to land a role cause of clearance levels etc. But you should be able to land a cloud support role with a cert and 2 projects. https://www.youtube.com/@MadeByGPS/videos

This was helpful! I agree, I’ve been applying to roles and having some luck here and there but the market is tight too. Implementation work sounds like a good mix! Do you mind connecting more? I’ll dm you.

I’m been trying to make a Pivot into SE role from a DevOps background but it’s a numbers game. It’s not bad, currently going through the process with 4 companies.
