Becoming a DevOps Engineer in the Age of AI — Free Live Career Session (2026)
Details
AI isn't replacing DevOps — it's amplifying it. Every AI agent in production is a long-running, non-deterministic system that needs orchestration, observability, guardrails, and someone o keep it up at 3 AM. Cloud, DevOps, and AI Platform Engineering are the highest-paid, fastest-growing jobs of 2026 — and employers want engineers who can ship real infrastructure, not collect certifications.
What I'll cover in 1 hour:
- The modern DevOps stack — AWS, Kubernetes, Terraform, Docker, GitHub Actions — and how it fits together in production
- Where AI changes the role: LLMOps, AI agent platforms, GPU infrastructure, model serving, observability and guardrails for AI workloads
- Why every AI agent in production is a distributed system that needs orchestration, secrets management, cost controls, and on-call coverage
- How we use AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, GitHub Copilot, Cursor) in the bootcamp to write Terraform faster, debug Kubernetes, and generate runbooks
- What employers actually test for in DevOps interviews in 2026
- Live demo: a real CI/CD pipeline from git push to a running container on Kubernetes
- SRE fundamentals: SLOs, error budgets, on-call, incident response
- The career path: Junior DevOps → SRE → Platform Engineer → AI Platform Engineer, with salary bands
- A walkthrough of the 5-day Cloud & DevOps Bootcamp (starts June 15) — and whether it's right for you
- Live Q&A
- Attendees get $50 off the 5-day bootcamp.
Who this is for:
- Aspiring Cloud or DevOps engineers
- Sysadmins and support engineers modernizing their skill set
- Developers moving toward infrastructure ownership
- Career-changers entering tech, especially toward AI infrastructure roles
- No prior AWS or Kubernetes experience required. Basic Linux familiarity helps.
