DevOps Engineering Professional Certificate equips experienced DevOps engineers, platform engineers, and SREs with the skills to build, automate, secure, and monitor enterprise-grade infrastructure at scale. It is ideal for professionals with prior experience in CI/CD, cloud, version control, and scripting moving into senior or lead roles.
The curriculum begins with enterprise DevOps platform governance, designing Azure DevOps organizational hierarchies, enforcing trunk-based branching, and deploying self-hosted GitHub Actions runner fleets on AKS. It progresses to pipeline engineering and automation, building reusable multi-stage YAML pipeline templates and event-driven automation via Azure Functions and Event Grid.
Learners develop cloud-native infrastructure skills, building secure container supply chains with Azure Container Registry image-signing, Kubernetes admission controls, and reusable Terraform and Bicep modules with policy-as-code. The program concludes with observability and metrics using Azure Monitor, Grafana, Application Insights, and OpenTelemetry to trace deployments from commit to production.
Through hands-on projects, learners create portfolio-ready artifacts aligned to SOX, ISO 27001, and CIS benchmarks. Graduates earn a digital certificate and prepare for roles like Senior DevOps Engineer, Platform Engineer, and Site Reliability Engineer.
