Here's what they don't tell you in bootcamps: I broke into DevOps without formal experience using one strategy. My students Eric and Danil did the same. Eric landed a senior SRE role. Danil got hired straight out of university. The secret? A home lab that mimics production environments. ​ Before I share the complete strategy, pay attention: 2 of my students landed jobs last week. That means 2 spots have opened up. If you want to land a DevOps jobs within the next 90 days, CLICK HERE to apply for my Career Accelerator program. We have limited interview spots available, book now before they're gone. ​ The 4-Step Home Lab Strategy: → Take an old laptop→ Install Linux→ Start running containers→ Build a Kubernetes cluster You now have a production environment at home. But here's what 90% of people miss: Don't just build it. BREAK it. Create real problems. Solve real problems. Document everything. This is where real learning happens. Start running your own mini-data center, approach it with a professional mindset. You don't need a formal job to get experience. You need to build the skills. ​ The Self-Hosting Rabbit Hole Start hosting applications that add value to your life: • Nextcloud for file storage • Grafana for monitoring • GitLab for CI/CD • Jellyfin for media ​ You'll face the same challenges real DevOps engineers face daily. Network failures. Configuration errors. Resource constraints. This is where the learning happens. ​ The Open Source Contribution Hack Find a project you use. Read the documentation. Submit a PR for a typo fix. Gradually work up to bigger contributions. Now you have collaboration experience with real teams. ​ The Results Speak for Themselves: Eric told me: "The hands-on experience from my home lab was the deciding factor. I could speak from real experience about multi-node clusters, deployments, networking issues." Danil shared: "Talking about my home lab took up most of the interview. I barely got any technical questions."
