WHAT THIS IS7

Everything needed to go from zero to a hireable Cloud or DevOps engineer. Every sheet is filterable. Every link is a full, visible https URL you can click or copy.8

HOW TO USE IT10

1. Open ‘Roadmap’ first. It sequences the whole journey into phases with a milestone for each.11

2. Use ‘Skills Matrix’ as your checklist. Filter by Level to see what is Foundation vs Core vs Advanced.12

3. Pull from ‘Free Courses’, ‘GitHub Resources’ and ‘Books & Docs’ as each phase demands them.13

4. Build from ‘Projects’ and drill in ‘Practice & Labs’. This field is judged on what you have operated, not what you have watched.14

5. ‘Certifications’ matters more here than in most disciplines. One associate certification plus real projects beats five certifications alone.15

6. ‘Interview Prep’ and ‘Companies Hiring’ are for the final phase. Do not start there.16

THE HONEST ADVICE

18

Do not collect tools. Depth in Linux, networking, one cloud, Kubernetes and Terraform will get you hired. Breadth across forty logos will not.19

Nobody is hired for watching tutorials. Break something you built, fix it, and write down what happened. That story is the interview.20

The most underrated skills on this list are networking fundamentals, cost awareness and writing. Almost every candidate is weak on all three.21

LEVEL KEY28

Foundation = you cannot skip it. Core = expected in every DevOps job description. Advanced = differentiators and depth signals.29

Links compiled July 2026. Every YouTube URL is sourced from independently curated public indexes rather than reconstructed from memory. Course and playlist links are the most durable links on YouTube, but if one has moved, search the exact title and creator: the resource will not have disappeared. All other sheets use stable vendor and documentation domains.49
