Anyone work in Cloud Development?

8 posts in this topic

I graduated a while ago with an engineering degree but decided I wanted to go into software. I've build some fullstack MERN projects but having trouble standing out from the rest of the entry-level crowd. Will brushing up on Java + getting some AWS certs help me out? I got my Certified Cloud Practitioner recently and am studying for the Solutions Architect Associate Cert. Anyone who works in this field want to talk about how they got into it?

Nailed the final test: I am officialy self supporting independent business. Not the programming stuff - they took someone with 140+ IQ for that.
