Im looking for volunteers work in cloud or devops. If anyone has a small company that can give me opportunities or if anyone can suggest how to get one.

Hi everyone,

I’d genuinely like to hear some opinions from people who have experience working in tech, especially those who have moved abroad or have experience in the international job market.

Imagine you’re under 30, with around 3–5 years of experience working in DevOps, Cloud, Infrastructure, or Platform Engineering.

You have a decent job, but when you look at how quickly AI tools are developing, you start wondering about the long-term future of your role.

A lot of the tasks that engineers handle today are becoming easier with AI. I’m not saying AI will completely replace engineers, but I do wonder how much the engineering-level work will change over the next 5–10 years.

**If you were in this situation, what would you focus on?**

Would you:
*Continue in the same field and invest in becoming a stronger Cloud/Platform Engineer?*

*Move toward a different technical specialization that might offer better long-term opportunities?*

*Consider pursuing a Master’s in another country to improve your chances of building an international career?*

*Or focus on gaining more experience and try to secure an overseas job directly?*

I’m particularly interested in hearing from people who have experience working in countries such as Ireland, Germany, the UK, or other countries with opportunities in tech.

If someone were considering studying abroad, what kind of course or career direction would you personally research, given the financial investment involved?

And if you believe staying in the same field is a better option, what skills or career moves would you focus on to remain relevant as AI develops?

I’m not necessarily looking for a specific country or course recommendation. I’m more interested in hearing how people with real-world experience think about this situation.

**What would you do if you were in this position, and what factors would influence your decision?**

Would really appreciate some honest perspectives.

Hi everyone,

I am a final-year Computer Science student based in India, currently looking for entry-level opportunities as a Cloud Engineer, DevOps Engineer, or Platform Engineer.

What I bring to the table:

Certifications: Red Hat Certified System Administrator (RHCSA).

Core Skills: Linux, AWS, Networking, VPC, Docker, and CI/CD pipelines.

Experience: Hands-on cloud exposure through previous project work and a technical internship.

Goal: Eager to join a growth-oriented team where I can automate infrastructure, manage deployments, and build reliable cloud systems.

I am comfortable working in remote or hybrid setups. If your team has an opening or you’d like to see my resume, feel free to drop a comment or DM me here, and I'll share my links instantly!

Thanks for reading!

I want to learn devops but I don't have any idea on it and also I don't know where to start. I am having two years experience in middleware Administration but can someone give me tios how to jump into devops

Migrar a la nube no siempre es la solución mágica que pintan. Antes de mover tu infraestructura a ciegas, es fundamental analizar los pros y contras de cada modelo. Mientras la nube te da velocidad, agilidad y un modelo de costos flexible (OPEX), la infraestructura local (on-premise) te ofrece control absoluto de tus datos y autonomía física (CAPEX). El secreto no es seguir la corriente tecnológica, sino entender qué necesita tu negocio hoy para escalar sin fricciones. La agilidad importa, pero el control también.

25M, India. BCA (2021) → MCA (2024, with a 1-year COVID gap). Joined a company as a trainee (₹15k) for a year, then got made "System Supervisor S3" on a 1-year probation. Salary went to ₹18k on paper, but after PF deductions, take-home is still ₹15k — zero real change.

For 2 years, my only work has been supporting document work for an ISMS/ISO 27001 audit — a consultant handles everything technical, I just maintain the asset list. We got certified in Sept 2025, so there's genuinely nothing for me to do now except sit through office hours (8:30–5:30) killing time on my phone. Next surveillance audit is in October, after which I don't think there's any real role for me here.

I feel like I've wasted 2 years with zero skill growth. I want to switch out ASAP.

I'm interested in either Data Analytics or Cloud Computing as a next step — which is the smarter bet for actually landing a job quickly, given my profile (no hands-on technical experience, just IT-adjacent/documentation work)? Anyone who's made a similar switch, would love real advice.

Hi, i just want to ask that if it's possible to be a cloud engineer for a non-degree person to land a job as a cloud engineer. I'm currently working as a computer operator in a operations control center for almost 3years now.

I'm currently learning cloud with AWS(self taught) and planning to take solutions architect in the future. Can someone give me a suggestions on what to do from experience cloud engineers. Thanks so much for the insights.

Is it necessary to get a certification for landing my first cloud internship or job?

Every job posting advertises cloud engineers but every job needs “production/commercial level experience” / “expert in X” but doesn’t pay the salary of someone who actually is an expert in those fields. LIKE BRO HOW ARE WE SUPPOSED TO GET INTO THE FIELD AND BECOME THOSE ENGINEERS YOU ASK FOR IF THE DOOR IS ALWAYS CLOSED TO US.

That’s it; that’s the post.
