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.

  • it has been pretty fun learning linux and shell scripting.
  • also based on the current impact of AI I can assume this domain will be ai proof for some years now.
  • plus I have seen the jds of this domain and they do not read like the company is looking for a whole department.
  • I am from electronics and telecommunication background, I like networking.
  • Less compitition than other markets
  • Good pay
