DevSecOps | Cloud Infrastructure | AI Security
I'm a final-year FIAE apprentice specializing in Cloud-Native Infrastructure and AI Security.
While most graduates focus on traditional application development, I'm building the secure, scalable platforms that power modern AI systems. My goal: Junior DevSecOps Engineer with expertise in Kubernetes, AWS, and AI security.
Currently: Building foundations in Linux, Networking & Security | ISCΒ² CC Certification in progress
| Quarter | Focus | Key Milestone | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Q1 '26 | Foundations | Linux, Networking, ISCΒ² CC Cert | π Month 2/3 |
| Q2 '26 | Cloud & Backend | AWS, Terraform, FastAPI | π Planned |
| Q3 '26 | Containers & Security | Docker, Kubernetes, OWASP | π Planned |
| Q4 '26 | Production Systems | AI Security, CI/CD, Monitoring | π Planned |

Most FIAE graduates:
- Build traditional CRUD applications
- Focus on single language/framework
- Limited cloud or security exposure
My approach:
- βοΈ Cloud-Native Infrastructure β Building platforms, not just apps
- π‘οΈ Security-First Design β DevSecOps mindset from day one
- π€ AI Infrastructure Focus β Hosting & securing AI systems
- π Production Mindset β Deployed, monitored, maintained
Why this matters: Positioning for high-demand roles that require human expertise AI tools can't replace.
This Month:
- π ISCΒ² Cybersecurity certification prep (Domains 3-4)
- π Linux command line mastery (OverTheWire: Bandit)
- π Networking fundamentals (openHPI: TCP/IP, Subnetting)
Next Quarter (Q2 2026):
- π― Python backend development (Helsinki MOOC)
- π― AWS fundamentals & cloud architecture
- π― First Terraform infrastructure deployment
"Build in Public, Learn by Doing"
My commitment:
- π Every course results in a GitHub project
- π― Theory + Practice = Real understanding
- π Ship first, iterate later
- π Document for others to learn from
No tutorial hell. Only practical, demonstrable work.
I'm open to discussing DevOps, cloud architecture, security practices, or collaborating on projects.
