Transitioning From Sys Admin Into Devops And Seeking A Devops Role by xerxesII(op): 9:12pm On Mar 22, 2022
Hey guys

I'm a sys admin guy trying to get into DevOps.

I work on Windows and Linux servers where I work atm.

I know it's not an easy field to transition into and it's gonna be difficult landing a role in the field as most companies want experienced peeps.

Kindly advise on what I need to do to get recruiters to give me a shot at this role in order to get my foot to the door.

My Skills:

Real good understanding of operating system(Linux)

Basic understanding of source control (GIT), CI tools for building ( Jenkins, maven) and deployment.

Configuration management using Ansible

Understanding of container technologies like Docker and Kubernetes.

Infrastructure knowledge AWS/VMWARE

Terraform

Basic Python Knowledge

Basic understanding of monitoring using Prometheus & Graphana

NB I'm currently studying for CKA exam scheduled for next month
