Discussion Want to switch to Cloud/DevOps engineer role

I have around 1.2 years of experience as a software developer. My main work has been in Flutter and React frontend development, along with some exposure to full-stack development during my internship (building internal tools and dashboards). Most of my work has been frontend-heavy, but I’ve also worked with APIs and backend.

I’m now looking to transition into Cloud / DevOps engineering roles.

I currently have learned Linux and it's useful commands and also have limited hands-on experience with cloud platforms and DevOps tools, but I’m actively learning Docker, CI/CD, and AWS fundamentals.

I'd appreciate any advice or guidance on how to approach this transition.

You are on a good track!

Try and put everything together in a project where you have some code for a website (can be trivial), you pu tit in a Docker container and build & deploy automatically to AWS, in different ways.
