What's an AWS CertificationI made the switch to DevOps a couple years ago.
Main skills you’ll need (along with what the OP posted)
Python,
Git/Git Hub
CI/CD (Jenkins)
Also, DevOps has split off into Site Reliability Engineers where DevOps is more coding and maintaining the deployment pipeline and SREs mainly manage and maintain the infrastructure.
I used the OP’s previous thread and changed careers. Got my AWS cert and educated myself on the industry. Increased my salary by 50% and I have recruiters contacting me every day.
Good luck Bruh.

Invest 1-2hrs a day on preparing for the future you.
Peace.
I got the Solutions Architect Associate cert.
Then I signed up for the free year AWS account and practiced. Watched all the AWS Invent videos. Took about 6 months of getting my skills up and my knowledge up.
What I would do when applying is do some research on the company and see from the job description what needs they have them write up a detailed proposal of how I would go about helping them solve their issues.
This almost always got me an interview. From there, you just need to sell yourself and your knowledge.
I cannot stress enough though, really research the DevOps space. They will forgive you for not having used a lot of this stuff because a lot is new. But you need to what all of the parts do and what strengths and weaknesses are.
So when you get questions, you can talk on it:
How would you deploy infrastructure? Terraform
Configuration management? Puppet or ansible
Containers? Docker
Orchestration? Kubernetes or ECS
Cloud Provider? AWS or Google Cloud or Azure
CI/CD? Jenkins and Circle CI
Etc. they want to know that you study this stuff and you know where to find answers.
Next wave I’m catching is entrepreneurial. I made it my goal this year to bring my Amazon monthly earnings to match the 9-5 by the end of the year.
Working on my private label products. I got one I'm about to launch soon. I started doing retail arbitrage this year, then moved into selling china products that were already listed and sold well. Now the next phase branding my own products.by doing what?

I’m averaging about $1000 gross right now with the China products and that’s only two that I found. Net is about two thirds that. I found an app called Jungle Scout I’m using for find product ideas now. If you’re starting off new to Amazon selling use discount sites like Vipon, Snagshout, ZonDeals to get products at 70%+ off and then order them. Ship them off to amazon and sell on the same listing. I can make a post going into more detail sometime, but that’s the gist of it.how did the highlighted area do?

Maybe about 2 hours a day of actual work. I have kids and a full time so this usually happens after I put them to bed. I also work from home in my current job so I can surf on my personal computer a couple times a day, but that's just me browsing.how much time do you invest?
thanks.
