How to transition a developer career into Kubernetes?

HomeResourcesBlogHow to transition a developer career into Kubernetes?
November 25, 2021 | Kubernetes
Read Time: 12:00

Automation addresses many difficulties but someone must still perform the other – presumably a more imaginative job.

That’s one of the reasons Kubernetes-related hiring is on the rise this year. The convergence of hybrid and multi-cloud settings, cloud-native development, and containers raise the demand for IT professionals who can juggle several plates.

Even if you’re a good developer, learning new abilities might help you negotiate a raise and make you more appealing to other employers. So, what is the hottest technology to study right now?

Kubernetes.

Whether you want to change careers or pivot out of dead-end employment, Kubernetes screams opportunity. In the IT industry’s “always be learning” attitude and the usual IT career advice to do the same, container orchestration technology appears to be a strong option for long-term success.

It is hard to say how long most tech companies will let their employees work from home and several organizations have discussed making the change permanent. Whether conventional on-site offices return or full-time telecommuting becomes the norm, talented IT professionals will be in high demand.

How can you persuade a current or prospective employer to take a risk on you when you have little to no Kubernetes experience? This is the predicament of the job seeker. Fortunately, Kubernetes’ relative youth and other features make it an ideal ground for potential career moves. There are several resources available to help you get started. Also, you don’t have to throw away your previous skills – whether in development, infrastructure, or other areas – to do so.

Transitioning into a Kubernetes job

Kubernetes (K8s) is a vital tool for DevOps engineers and it is regarded as the most valuable container management technology by some. It can scale without expanding the operations department and is crucial to the cloud-native approach.

Here’s what you need to know if you are going to be working with Kubernetes daily:

  1. Read on, Watch, and Listen

    There is currently a plethora of online resources for learning Kubernetes, ranging from official documentation to tutorials, classes, and other tools. Training and certifications improve resumes and might pique the interest of employers. The official Kubernetes website offers training and certifications from the Linux Foundation and training partners. Officials see it as a career investment that will assist cloud-native projects to succeed.

    However, don’t restrict yourself to only reading the official documentation. It is excellent but there are many more options, including online classes from companies like Cognixia. Get interactive sessions and courseware on Kubernetes that may be of assistance. Take a look at Cognixia’s online Kubernetes training.

  2. Make use of Kubernetes: Minikube

    That may appear to be a huge challenge. How do you get your hands on a live Kubernetes cluster without breaking the pocketbook – or a production system? It is not an insurmountable difficulty.
    Commercial solutions, such as Red Hat OpenShift or managed Kubernetes services may provide free trials or individual accounts for testing and learning. Also, consider giving Minikube a try. This free app enables you to run a single-node Kubernetes cluster on your laptop.

  3. Join the Kubernetes community

    The Kubernetes community and culture are developed by its users and contributors, and this is one of the primary reasons for the open-source project’s spectacular growth. As the project evolves and changes, so do the culture and values. So, join in.

    Nobody expects you to go from having no experience with Kubernetes to making frequent contributions to the open-source project overnight, and you shouldn’t either. However, search for more sensible methods to participate, such as joining – or even organizing – a local group.

  4. Demonstrate your knowledge of relevant technology

    Here’s the big step: Unless you’re a banker or an accountant who has decided to migrate into IT, you’re likely to have previous skills and expertise that indicate a high level of potential if allowed to learn and work with Kubernetes on the job.

    Kubernetes is a tool that can be learned, and your goal is to demonstrate that you are the proper candidate for the organization to invest in to learn Kubernetes.

    The skills may include CI/CD, orchestration technologies, other related microservices, programming languages such as Go, or any automation technologies and tools like Ansible, Terraform, etc.

  5. Align your knowledge to your goal

    You wouldn’t prepare for a 5K race using a marathon technique, would you? There’s a similar concept at work here to overtraining know what you want to achieve and prepare appropriately. It’s a different proposition to be able to design systems from the bottom up than it is to be able to govern managed settings.

Final Words

Kubernetes has grown like wildfire in the market, with more and more enterprises adopting it each year. Many big corporations have already begun to use Kubernetes in large-scale production. Docker, on the other hand, is a fantastic piece of technology that has experienced incredible adoption increase over the years. This is why there is such a high demand for Docker and Kubernetes throughout the world, as enterprises all over the world are integrating these two key platforms for their containers and microservices.
