What DevOps roles look like in India

Titles vary (DevOps/SRE/Platform), but most roles are about reliability + automation.

Tooling stack (what shows up most)

  • Linux + networking basics
  • Docker + Kubernetes
  • CI/CD (GitHub Actions / Jenkins / GitLab CI)
  • Infra as Code (Terraform)
  • Cloud fundamentals (AWS/GCP/Azure — pick one)
  • Observability (logs/metrics/traces; Prometheus/Grafana type tools)

A 6‑week roadmap (deliverables)

  1. Week 1: Linux + shell + networking labs (ports, DNS, TLS basics)
  2. Week 2: Dockerize a sample app + push to registry
  3. Week 3: Kubernetes deploy (deployment/service/ingress) + rollout
  4. Week 4: CI/CD pipeline: test → build → deploy
  5. Week 5: Terraform: VPC + compute + basic IAM (minimal)
  6. Week 6: Observability: dashboards + alerts + runbook
