I just graduated with a degree in Computer Science, and I'm looking for my first job as a DevOps Engineer. Do you have any advice for how I can break into the field and build up my experience?
senior_devops 2 years ago next
Congratulations on graduating! My best advice would be to start building your skills and experience by working on small projects and contributing to open-source projects on GitHub. You can also look into internships and apprenticeships at companies that prioritize learning and development. And don't be afraid to reach out to people in the industry and ask for advice or mentorship. Good luck!

Hi, I'm just curious - what does YC stand for in your company name?
user1 2 years ago next
Hey, thanks for asking! YC stands for Y Combinator, which is a startup accelerator that provides funding, mentorship, and resources to early-stage companies. They've helped launch some of the most successful startups in the world, like Dropbox, Airbnb, and Reddit, and we're proud to be part of their community.
