About me:
I'm a software engineer currently working at a really dope company in Silicon Valley. I'm about a year out from college where I graduated with a degree in Computer Science. This channel is all about helping people who want to know more about software engineering or computer science and for me to be a helping hand in any way I can.

Hi. Do you have a book you can recommend. I’m transitioning to Devops. Do you know a mentorship program.
I'm a recruiter for these types of jobs within a tech company and you just explained it 100% better than any Director of DevOps i've ever worked with haha. Bravo!
Hello just wondering since you are a recruiter for devops what are you looking for to hire someone
@Will hire me!
@@AP-jz1bx Let me hire you
@@Allyluffsya please do.
What’s your LinkedIn I am currently applying for these role
It really is challenging describing what "DevOps" is. I think you did a good job. It also sounds like you work at a great place, I'm happy for you because that is really important for proper growth. Keep it up!
This is literally the best on DevOps I found on YT. Thank you.
Awesome video! I am a fullstack engineer who is now trying to get into devops! This helps a lot! Awesome content! keep 'em coming!
This is so interesting, I truly enjoy your way of expressing what you do for a living with your career... Since deciding that I want to have a career change, you are the first candid person with a great personality that makes me eager to pursue this field now more than ever... I'm a older WOC and hoping to get into this field soon... Listening to you makes me feel like I can really get into this field and really love it.. Great job, on telling and helping us understand what it's like in the CS career!.. May God bless you continually!
Both of those major task types you mentioned sounds like fun. Thanks for sharing!
I'm a DevOps engineer as well! I'm about 3 months in at this point, it hasn't clicked for me just yet but I'm dedicated to learning everything I can! Glad to know I'm not the only black female in this subfield!
how do i become a devops? what are the techs to learn?
Learn linux and then Docker. If you want we can create a study plan for the host of us. I need somebody to hold me accountable and vice versa
Linux, Docker, Kubernetes that's a good place to start!
What was the fist cert you got to get in the devops field specifically?
@@ejay2075 I only have 1 so far and it's the cloud practitioner cert from aws. Working on my sysops administrator next!
You explained this so eloquently. Great video. Thank you!
This was awesome! I've been trying to get into the cloud and browsing to see what really a devops engineer actually works on and what is it that is really needed. You explained CICD perfectly and reinforced what I've been learning with AWS. Also it tells me I need to work on writing my code a lot better ;D
The way you explained this is really great. The analogy is a basic as possible and very straight forward. You took away most of my confusion. Thanks a lot for this.
I enjoy your content! Thank you for sharing this!
This is exactly what I did at my IT Operations internship I loved the DevOps aspect of it. It bridged the gap between all the IT teams.
Where did you do the internship?
I really like the way you explain what you do. It's really insightful and easy to understand!
Great explanation of this Role! Thx you
5 minutes in....Loving this explanation so far! You are great.
Thank you! Sounds very similar to what I did when I designed firmware… and i never could quite explain to people what firmware is…but running thousands and thousands of iterations to try and break it was fun!
this sounds sooo cool! to have such a macro view of the work. i'm also realizing the importance of having managers that really care about and want to invest in you, and dope to know it's possible!
Hi Sosa, I'm from Malaysia and just want to thank you for the sharing. I'm just starting in this DevOps field with no experience and came from a business background in my college. Wish me luck in pursuit this career and wish to be as good as you are one day!
Happy to see this. I do the same thing at my job.
Thx much for sharing, just stumbled on your channel because Iam beginning to prepare for DevOps interviews. Truth is I don't feel qualified because I don't code, got my certification in AWS and have learned some DevOps tools, so I want to give it a shot though I lack the hands on. Watching this first video of yours has given me great insight, will keep watching. 😊
Thank you! Really detailed video 😚
Amazing, thank you for sharing. I was just looking for personal experience on DevOps.
Glad you liked the video :)
Thank you so much for sharing! I really like your view on DevOps, given it changes so much from company to company!
Glad it was helpful!
Nice save on the explanation of priority builds haha. But this was a great video!
Great job Sosa for precisely explaining about DevOps role and your day to day work as part of your role. I can relate that I too worked on some areas of DevOps however there wasn't much development work. My role was more of a Operations and Support on the application side. And running the Jenkins build, pushing developer's change into Git and releasing the stuffs into production was part of my role. I would be happy if you could share some tips on what to expect on the DevOps interview.
Wow 2 minutes in and you answered my question i was coming to ask lol...I needed to know that as a devops engineer i would not necessarily the person who needs to know how to build the calculator.
I love the details on this video. Many of you are mostly my reason of switching from Political Science to a BSCS or BSIS course!
I'm really Inspired by you Sosa, truly you've given me more reason to stay focus and keep learning and I also admire how you break down the definition of devops as a practice not a technology as most people get confused with. You’re Amazing. I can't believe i am watching this video 4 years after you posted. I'm from a non IT background i took a bootcamp for devops so far i have learned alot and i wanna keep learning. Thank you Sosa
You Go Girl, My PhD is in Business/ Spec. Information Technology , with numerous Certifications mandated by my University, I decided to go into AWS Pro. DevOps Engineering. I completed my Certification last month. Now I’m practicing interview question to secure my first Gig.
You go girl!
Really a nice Video, Many Thanks
This is really amazing ..I soon want to start my career as a DevOps engineer
Super helpful video. Thank you! Hearing about your work on the priority queue is interesting. Also, I can definitely relate to having variety in what you do and being able to take the initiative to create tools that will help your team.
You're so welcome!
very informative thanks! I kind of knew that devOps was a thing, but I didn't know that it was an actual job to itself until recently.
Great video! I'd love to get into DevOps.
Thanks for a very Real No-fluff video filled with valuable nuggets of information!
Anytime!
Great Video. I'm trying to make my way over to DevOps from the Network Admin world. Especially AWS. Thanks for sharing.
Glad it was helpful!
Just to let you know you're dope. Continue doing this! I love seeing all my people in tech!
I really appreciate this!!
@@heysosathedev no prob! It's dope to from one tech POC to the next.
Very well explained on devops architecture. I'm practicing devops skill currently let's see how it goes🤜🤛
I would be starting my career as a devops straight out of college.This helps me a lot
I have been trying to figure my next step in IT and devops is talked about everywhere without explaining what it is. Is it a management, person or a team? This was an awesome explanation. You did a great job not regurgitating what the text book says. I have been searching for a good answer for a month and you connected the dots perfectly. I still don't know what I want to do but I can ignore devops for now.
🙌A must watch for Every DevOps Beginner & Enthusiasts. DevOps explained the right way...!!
I have been looking for a video like this. thanks for sharing. can you also do a video on what the operations team do as DevOps engineers please
Really good informative video!
I am so glad to finally found a video that says what ACTUALLY ISSSSSS DEVOPS
people usually say just what it looks like and you went deeper in this topic
Glad you like it!
Thanks for explaining this
Awesome! You killed it
keep it up, love from Portugal
I'm a Unix SysAdmin who was looking into moving into DevOps and I appreciate the breakdown in this video. Thank you and keep up the great work!
Thanks, will do!
Thank you for sharing .God bless you!!
You are so welcome
Amazing video. Vulnerable + Informative. OG :D
Great work! So pumped to see another woman in the DevOps field, I started my own journey about a year and a half ago now. Just recently decided to create my own channel to provide more educational material related to our industry. Looking forward to your next video!
how much programming / coding does your role have?
Very inspiring thank you
I am really glad that I saw your video I feel like I can really connect to you as I have also completed my college and I got training to become a devops engineer but I am a little scared just like you overthinking about how do devops engineer work and this and that but i am great full that you shared your experience thanks
Don't worry, in the beginning I was really scared too but you have to get to the point where you have confidence in what you do and have the flexibility to learn when you get the position. It's not easy but don't doubt your ability to get there :) Thanks for watching!!
I start a DevOps position Monday and you helped ease my worries..only a bit though lol.
Cool video! I'm considering a transition into a DevOps Engineering role, after a long career in Web Development. This helped to solidify what DevOps actually is or matched up with some of the ideas I had about the subject. Thanks again!
Why you transition to devops from web development?
@@Santoshnsk Not sure, haven't decided yet. I'm kind of tired of coding all the time and not really advancing in my career the way I had expected to. The pay is good, but the stress level is high and developers can be kind of snobby and hard to work with. I'd actually like to start working with my hands or doing something physical instead of being at a desk all day.
This is amazing!!!!!!!!!
Thank you for The video it really helped me . Hi form Turkey 🙃
this video is so helpful since I will be applying to this job for DevOps engineer :) tnx!
Glad it was helpful!
Yay, a clear and real interpretation of DevOps
thank you !!
Good insight!
Thanks!
Hey Sosa, loved this video. Thanks for sharing your journey, it’s really inspiring. I have a question... can you give some interview tips for someone who just got started and desire to get a devils job? I just got my aws Devo’s certification and I’m looking for my first job.
This is well broken down and I understood it in as little time possible...I have see other videos people just walk,talk,drink coffee and eat pizza I don know whats the meaning of that from work perspective.
Hi hun! I love your channel! I’m going back for a BS in computer science this fall! I already have a BS in psychology that I got a few years ago and decided to go back because I wanted a career change that was challenging (I’m almost 28). I’m a black woman and it’s SOOO NICE to see someone that looks like me doing this!
Omg, I'm in a similar boat, I wish you luck sis.
Great video.
Hi Sosa, i recently got an internship offer to be on the DevOps team for a massive company. I'm still fresh out out college. I have close to zero experience or knowledge on DevOps. I just decided to browse my way through at least to know the basics before I kick off by Monday. I stumbled upon your video which is really amazing and exactly what I needed. Just found out that I'm beginning just like you did. I really enjoyed the video, I played back in some places to get some points stuck in my head, I have experience in software engineering so most concepts were not too strange. I have subscribed to your channel and I really want to follow you through at what you do. I really believe I will learn a lot from you. I'm Somto by the way and I will love to connect with you beyond social media. I strongly believe someday, I will put up contents like this on my page too. Thank you Soo much. Really sorry for the long comment 😃. I'm just excited 😃😆😂
From all the introduction to what DevOps engineer does, yours was one of the best(est) - DevOps varies so much as you said, and your video seemed really genuine and realistic.
It was nice to watch it, and thanks for sharing :)
Yessss! My company is so male dominated, i work 100% with men on my DevOps team. But I'm very happy seeing this subfield diversify. I know it will only make our team think more outside of the box and be successful.
How does diversity in gender help people to think outside of the box?
I’ve been thinking about the potential of moving from my System Administration job in to DevOps and this is one of very few videos on CZcams that actually explains what the job actually IS quite clearly. Thanks.
Thank you so much for this input! I know I’m replying late but I’m currently a rising senior in high school and am looking into going into this field. Is there any majors you recommend or would computer science be the best one. Also, what languages and other tools do you recommend to be even more prepare than other by the time I graduate college.
great explain
Hi lovely video how often do you have to code ?
Still learning ..and the algorithm you spoke about how do you implement that ?
Do you write a code in JSON ? Python? And how do you practically ..like implement it to help sort builds.. Ive built pipe lines before CI/CD process and what not, but that’s not a production environment just practicing did you have to learn groovy language ?
Hi Sosa, how are you doing , I just got a chance to watch your video it was so informative and help full for me as I have a plan of switching my role form QA to Devops eng , can you please tell me what are the daily challenges that we get to to face in our daily routine as a Devops Eng and also which one is the best suite for Cloud Azure or AWS
This was such a cool video to watch. So I actually find a lot of similarities in what you're doing to my job. A Shopify development team hired me to be a project manager. I've never been a project manager but was more a tech virtual assistant. Anyway I'm this middle man between dev and ops. That being said, I'm not nearly as involved with code and with the higher technical things that you're dealing with. Nor am I a developer (or want to be). I'm sort of wondering where I go to improve on this position... whether that be learning code or.. ? Any suggestions?
can you plz explain more about tools used in devops and how are project done
Hello, Sosa, I've been building front-end with React and apps with React Native also doing some backend staff for over a year, i like it so much, and couple days ago one big international company invited me to Junior DevOps position, will be glad to hear your opinion, will i like it like front/app/back-end development or should i just keep doing what i do?
I’m fascinated about how you are a part of a strong team, what do I have to do to be a devops engineer?
You make nice videos!!!! can you guide. I want to do online CS. Thanks!
Hi Sosa. I've been big fan of your channel and the content you put out for a while now. I'm currently in the process of beginning my DevOps journey and will like your suggestions on a good online learning platform to start from. Thanks. Also, considering that you have hands on industry experience in this field, I will be more than grateful if you can take me on as a mentor on this journey; that will really mean so much to me. Thanks again.
Hi Sosa, you did a great job breaking down the whole DevOps, and the teams as well. Great job!!. I just have a question regarding git branching, code review. From what I got from you, seems like code review occurs after the build takes place and it runs without fail in the testing environment. Is that always the case, or can code review and merging also happen before it is ever build? Please clarify my doubts.
Thanks
Hey Larisa, good question. The build happens whenever you push a commit to your branch, assuming that you've already setup the PR and the branch for remote tracking. Now, every time you push a change, a build will run which includes running in the testing environment. At the end of the build, you'll get a status on whether or not it passed all the tests. If it does, you can add engineers to review the PR but, theoretically, you could add reviewers at any point. I like to add reviewers after I'm done writing the code and when the tests are passing. But merging cannot happen without 1. building and passing all the tests 2. an approval from a reviewer. Hope that clarified things!
Would you mind giving us a detailed example of any one of the projects you do..?
I’m looking into schools for software engineering, more specifically boot camps, and I’m wondering if there are any specific topics that I should look for within the varying schools’ curriculums to be able to move into a DevOps position? I’m assuming I’ll need to be a software engineer for at least 2 years before the transition can even become a possibility... am I off on that? I appreciate any guidance!
I love your manager lucky you.
Great presentation. Quick question. Do you have to always come up with new codes written from scratch every single time or you can just modify preexisting ones? Thanks!
Both!
Any tips for a guy who got his computer science degree 13 years ago but decided to enlist in the military? I'm thinking about getting back into coding and I want to get into DevOps.
Greeting and thanks. Please suggestions of places we may apply. Thank you in advance.
Hi Sosa, hope you remember the chat. I am working as a support guy in IT mainly on Jenkins job, shell scripting writing. I want to completely move to Devops but I scared as if I some how got the job and didn't able to make it there then? I like automation using shell scripting, Angular code, Jenkins. I am self learning kubernates and Docker. Could you help counseling me. Guide me that how should I enhance mine developing as well as Devops skills. What projects should I made?Is moving to Devops do I need to be good in Development part too.
Hello Sosa,
May I know which technology and tools are used in DevOps process for developing application
Can you recommend a starting point or a roadmap for aspiring dev ops engineer? Thanks in advance
Please what cream do you use, your hands are so soft and fresh. I wpuld love to buy it... the whole time you were speaking, l couldn't take my eyes off your hands lol... great presentation... 👍👌
What do you think are the pros and cons of working in dev ops? I heard from some people it’s a chill job and I’m in healthcare looking to get into tech
Great channel ,new subbie..
Thanks for subbing!
hi ....basically what are the devops tools that you use for your pipeline projects
Hi @Sosa, love the video and explanations!
I'm a mid-level DevOps Engineer (more specifically in "Linux") myself had now 3,5 years of DevOps experience, but still feel like I'm a Junior in it most of the time :/
What is your approach or method on troubleshooting issues? I still have not yet developed a method of my own, but can still extrapolate reasoning on how or why an issue has occurred or reverse engineer issues by reproducing the issues in order to fix them.
Would love to hear or your thoughts on how you solve specific issues!
Thanks in advance! :)
hey can i ask where i can find Devops bootcamp ? thanks
Loved the video. I'm in a similar role though lately I haven't been able to do much development and been stuck more on the ops side. How much ops: development ratio do you do? Do you also use infrastructure as code such as terraform and AWS?
Thanks so much for watching! I really try to work with my manager to make sure I do a little more development work than ops. For the past few weeks I've been working on adding a new feature to our Jenkins instance, so about 80% of my time has been development. Usually, I try to aim for a 60/40 split. And our product is a desktop application so our infrastructure isn't in the cloud (yet) but we use a combination of Ansible and Salt.
@@heysosathedev That's great that you have a relationship like that with your manager, trust me you're in a very lucky position. I work with AWS, chef, terraform and recently JS to build an app for updating our images, so I am getting to do more dev stuff finally. There aren't many CZcamsrs who are in a proper devops role, especially who do dabble more on the dev side so your perspective is very interesting. Keep it up 😊!
hello sosa, can I start a training as fresher in DevOps engineer. or i need a preminary IT background. ?
So I haven’t declared a major yet. I am worried about math. Were you good at math? How did you handle that part of the computer science major? Also side note I’ve been in school for so long having a hard time picking a major. I can’t get into the engineering program so I decided maybe I should try computer science. Can you make a video somewhere along the lines of, how one would know if computer science is not or is the right field for someone?
I’m interested in engineering things, inventing things, science but I also love managing and being in my feet. I fear that computer science might not be for me. The thing that I’m almost worried about is math.
Stay tuned. I have a video coming out tomorrow morning that will hopefully answer all your questions :)
hi , do you know anything about migration from premise to cloud?
I was looking at some job Posting about what it is this like a Desk job, I like to move around at a job
