Software developers are a mainstream and exciting career choice amongst young professionals. The role of a software developer includes the development of well-optimized and efficient code for the latest software. Software developers bring life to the system hardware/platform with their coding skills.

Cloud Engineer

Cloud technology has become popular in recent years. In fact, it has become a part of our daily life. Using an online document platform, or backing up your phone pictures to the internet is all possible due to cloud technology. For a company, it means data can be stored and backed up more easily, software updates can be rolled out on-demand, and customers may be able to access their information from different remote locations and devices. Cloud engineers keep working behind the scenes to keep this all going. To become a cloud engineer one should have relevant skills in networking, operating system programming, and security. The top skill required for cloud engineers nowadays is DevOps. There is a complete roadmap to becoming an AWS-certified cloud engineer for which I will be leaving a complete tutorial link.
