DevSecOps | Azure Cloud Infrastructure | AI Security
I'm a final-year FIAE apprentice specializing in Cloud-Native Infrastructure with a growing focus on AI Security.
While many graduates focus primarily on application development, my passion lies in building and securing the underlying platforms. My goal is to become a Junior DevSecOps Engineer with solid expertise in Linux, Microsoft Azure, and infrastructure automation.
Currently: Building foundations in Linux & Programming | Python MOOC in progress
| Quarter | Focus | Key Milestone | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Q1 '26 | Linux & Programming | Linux, Python MOOC | 🔄 In Progress |
| Q2 '26 | Networking, Security & Cloud | Networking, ISC² CC Cert, Azure IaC, AZ-900 | 📅 Planned |
| Q3 '26 | Containers & Security | Docker, AKS (Kubernetes), OWASP | 📅 Planned |
| Q4 '26 | Capstone | AI Security Layer, CI/CD, Azure Monitor | 📅 Planned |

- 🤖 AI Infrastructure Ready: Understanding how to host and secure modern AI systems against emerging threats.
- 🚀 Production Mindset: Focusing on deployments, monitoring, and Infrastructure as Code (Terraform) rather than just running code locally.
"Build in Public, Learn by Doing"
My commitment:
- 📝 Every learning module results in a practical GitHub project.
- 🎯 Theory + Practice = Real understanding.
- 🔄 Ship first, iterate later (Done is better than perfect).
- 🌐 Document architectures thoroughly so others can learn from them.
I'm always open to discussing DevSecOps, Azure cloud architecture, security practices, or collaborating on projects.
