Phase 0 — Personalized 1:1 Roadmap Session
Every learner starts with a 1:1 session to understand your background and goals, map a personalized learning path (DevOps / SRE / Cloud / Platform / Data + AI), define weekly milestones, and prioritise high-impact wins.
Phase 1 — Self-Paced Foundations (Recorded Material)
You complete DevOps + AWS / Azure Cloud fundamentals through structured recorded content. The recorded material is fully supported by the weekly doubt-clearing sessions, so you are never stuck on your own.
Tools covered: Linux, Git, Docker, Kubernetes, Helm, Terraform, Ansible, Jenkins, GitHub Actions, Prometheus, Grafana, ELK, AWS (IAM, EC2, VPC, S3, RDS, Lambda, API Gateway), Azure (Intro), Python and Shell scripting.
Phase 2 — 15 Live Industry-Grade Projects
You will design, build, demo, and ship every project end-to-end with mentor support.
Project 1 — DevOps Workflow & Agile Delivery Setup
- Why: Every product team runs on Agile and DevOps workflows. Without knowing how Jira, Git branching, releases, and ceremonies actually work, you will struggle from day one.
- You will learn: How real teams plan sprints, branch and release code, and collaborate across roles.
- Stack: Jira, Confluence, Git, GitHub, branching strategies, Slack.
Project 2 — AWS Multi-Account Governance with Control Tower
- Why: Companies don't run on a single AWS account — they have separate accounts for dev, QA, prod, security, and billing. You need to set this up and govern it safely.
- You will learn: Build a secure multi-account landing zone with guardrails, SSO, and centralized billing.
- Stack: AWS Organizations, Control Tower, IAM Identity Center, SCPs, CloudTrail, Config.
Project 3 — Golden AMI Pipeline
- Why: Enterprises don't launch random images in production. They use hardened, patched, standardized images so every server is secure and consistent.
- You will learn: Automate the build, hardening, and distribution of secure base images.
- Stack: Packer, Ansible, Jenkins, AWS EC2, Systems Manager, CIS hardening.
Project 4 — Infrastructure Automation with Terraform & Ansible
- Why: Clicking in the AWS console doesn't scale. Real teams provision and configure everything as code so it's versioned, reviewed, and reproducible.
- You will learn: Design reusable Terraform modules and use Ansible for configuration in a production-style setup.
- Stack: Terraform modules, Ansible, AWS VPC / EC2 / RDS / ALB, Remote State (S3 + DynamoDB).
Project 5 — Serverless Application Architecture
- Why: Many modern apps run serverless to cut cost and scale automatically. Engineers who design event-driven systems are in high demand.
- You will learn: Build a scalable, event-driven app with APIs, storage, and async processing.
- Stack: AWS Lambda, API Gateway, DynamoDB, S3, EventBridge, SAM / Serverless Framework.
Project 6 — Kubernetes + GitOps Deployments
- Why: Kubernetes is the default for microservices, and GitOps is how serious teams deploy — through Git, not manual kubectl.
- You will learn: Deploy and manage microservices on Kubernetes using a declarative GitOps workflow.
- Stack: Kubernetes (EKS), Helm, ArgoCD, Kustomize, Ingress, HPA.
Project 7 — Monitoring & Observability Platform
- Why: If you can't see what's happening in production, you can't fix it. Every serious team invests heavily in metrics, logs, and traces.
- You will learn: Design a complete observability stack across services.
- Stack: Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, Alertmanager, CloudWatch, OpenTelemetry.
Project 8 — End-to-End CI/CD Pipeline
- Why: Manual deployments are slow and risky. CI/CD is the heart of DevOps and almost every interview tests it.
- You will learn: Build multi-stage pipelines for containerized apps with automated build, test, and deploy.
- Stack: Jenkins / GitHub Actions, Maven / Gradle, Docker, Kubernetes, SonarQube, Slack.
Project 9 — MLOps Pipeline on AWS
- Why: Companies are deploying ML models everywhere, and most data scientists can't operationalize them. Engineers who understand MLOps are paid a premium.
- You will learn: Train, version, deploy, and monitor ML models in production.
- Stack: AWS SageMaker, S3, MLflow, Docker, GitHub Actions, Model Registry, CloudWatch.
Project 10 — GenAI Application with AWS Bedrock
- Why: Every company is trying to ship GenAI features. Engineers who can actually build and deploy them safely are rare and highly valued.
- You will learn: Build a production-ready GenAI app with foundation models, APIs, and guardrails.
- Stack: AWS Bedrock (Claude / Llama), Lambda, API Gateway, S3, Streamlit / React.
Project 11 — Cloud Cost Optimization & FinOps
- Why: Cloud bills get out of control fast. Engineers who can reduce spend without breaking systems become trusted across the org.
- You will learn: Analyse and reduce AWS spend through tagging, rightsizing, and automation.
- Stack: AWS Cost Explorer, Budgets, Compute Optimizer, Trusted Advisor, Lambda, Athena.
Project 12 — Automated Testing in CI/CD
- Why: A pipeline that doesn't test properly is just a fast way to ship bugs. Real teams gate releases on automated quality checks.
- You will learn: Embed unit, integration, and end-to-end testing into CI/CD with proper reporting.
- Stack: JUnit / PyTest, Selenium, Postman / Newman, JaCoCo, Allure Reports, Jenkins.
Project 13 — Secure DevOps CI/CD (DevSecOps)
- Why: Security can't be bolted on at the end. Companies expect security checks, secret management, and image scanning baked into the pipeline.
- You will learn: Add code quality gates, dependency and image scanning, secrets management, and a Dev → QA → Prod artifact promotion flow.
- Stack: Jenkins / GitHub Actions, SonarQube, Snyk, Trivy, HashiCorp Vault, GitHub Secrets, JFrog / Nexus / ECR, OWASP ZAP, Docker, Kubernetes.
Project 14 — AI-Powered Log & Incident Analysis (AIOps)
- Why: Production generates more logs and alerts than humans can read. LLMs are now used to triage incidents and suggest fixes — a key edge for modern SRE / DevOps.
- You will learn: Use LLMs and ML to summarise logs, triage incidents, and suggest remediation.
- Stack: Python, OpenAI / Bedrock, LangChain, OpenSearch / ELK, Prometheus, Slack / PagerDuty.
Project 15 — AI-Driven Data Pipeline (Cloud Data Engineering)
- Why: Data + AI is where the highest-paid roles are heading. Knowing how to feed clean data into LLMs (RAG) is a skill very few engineers have.
- You will learn: Build an end-to-end data pipeline that ingests, transforms, and serves data to an LLM-powered analytics layer.
- Stack: AWS S3, Glue, Athena, Lambda, Airflow / Step Functions, Bedrock / OpenAI, Vector DB (OpenSearch / pgvector), Python.
For every project you get: source code, architecture diagrams, session recordings, README, and a portfolio-ready GitHub repo.
Phase 3 — Interview Preparation
- Technical drills: DevOps, Cloud, Kubernetes, CI/CD, Terraform, Linux, Scripting
- Scenario and system design rounds: real production problem-solving
- SRE and Platform rounds: SLO/SLI design, incident response, on-call readiness
- Behavioural and HR rounds: STAR method, leadership principles
- Mock interviews: recorded, reviewed, and debriefed
- Curated question bank from real hiring loops
- Resume, LinkedIn, and GitHub optimization
Phase 4 — Referrals & Placement Support
- 10+ verified referrals across startups, product companies, and MNCs
- Active job leads in the community channel
- Placement coordinator support and follow-ups
- Weekly progress tracking until you land the role
- Continued support post-offer (negotiation and onboarding)
