Description
Pivoting from support to cloud ops. Looking for a reality check.
I have spent the last few years working in operations and support with a heavy focus on escalations and operational excellence. I am currently finishing up my AWS SAA to pivot into a full cloud ops role. I already hold my CCP and FOCP certifications.
I am looking for guidance on how to break into this space, ideally in a remote capacity. I want to find a position that allows me to build my skills without the extreme, high-stress cycle I am used to in my current operations background. I know that passing a test is a totally different planet compared to what happens in a real production environment, so I am looking for a sanity check from someone actually in the trenches.
If you have been in this space for a while and would be willing to share some perspective here, I would appreciate the insight. Even better, if you are open to a quick 10 minute call to tell me how you got your start and how you navigated finding a role that was sustainable, please shoot me a DM.
I am happy to respect your time and keep it brief. Thanks for any help.
