From sysadmin to DevOps
I’m Darrell Tang. I have 16 years of experience in IT, including 8 in DevOps, and I’ve received offers from Paramount+, Nike, and Capital One. These are based on the kinds of projects I built to land those offers.

Build projects you can defend
You want a DevOps job, but what should you build? Start with an app, then work up to automated deployments and monitoring. Each project is a fresh build.
In one project, you’ll turn the app off to test your monitoring. Could it say the app’s fine when it’s broken?
The PDFs guide your builds. The orientation video helps you choose where to start.
These projects don’t guarantee you’ll get hired. But showing good judgment gives interviewers a reason to trust you, and that CAN get you hired.
Before you buy
Why pay when tutorials are free?
You’re paying for clear project requirements and checks that show your build works. Free tutorials can help you learn the tools. Here, you decide how to build the project, so you can explain your choices in an interview instead of repeating someone else’s steps.
Is this right for my skill level?
Yes! The projects cover nine levels, so you can start where you need to. The orientation video helps you choose.
Employers want production experience. How does this help?
These projects let you practice in a mock production environment. They don’t replace production experience, but they give you something tutorials never will: your own decisions and problems to talk about in interviews.
What if it’s not useful to me?
If it isn’t useful to you for any reason, email support@darrelldoesdevops.com and I’ll refund the full amount! No questions asked!
Will I pay for cloud services?
Yes, but you can use free tiers or trial credits for many earlier projects, if your account qualifies and you stay within the limits. Once you get to managed Kubernetes, expect costs. And the five projects for your computer let you practice without a cloud bill.
Do I have to write an app?
No. The PDFs list sample apps you can use. You’ll still write scripts and configuration as you build.
What if I get stuck?
Troubleshooting is part of the practice. Use the requirements and checks to narrow down what broke, then dig into docs and tutorials.
You can also ask in my free Skool community or reach out on YouTube & TikTok! Share what you’ve tried and where you got stuck.
Do I have to finish all nine?
Nope! Use the orientation video to pick a starting point. Finish a project you can explain, then move on when you’re ready.
