A pure project-based training program, no classroom phase, no padding. Six months of structured DevOps work, mentored by experienced working engineers on Techcake premises. Built for candidates who already have the fundamentals and want production-grade portfolio work.
Project-led, mentor-reviewed
Working practitioners
On Techcake premises, Kannur
Not a beginner program
This is not a training program. It is a structured 6-month project-based training phase for candidates who already have the fundamentals and need the missing piece, real, mentored production exposure that an employer recognises on a resume.
You've finished a DevOps or cloud course and have the fundamentals, but every job posting asks for production experience you don't have.
You're a developer, sysadmin, or QA engineer moving into DevOps. You've self-studied the toolchain and need a real environment to apply it in.
You want a structured project-based training program that goes beyond shadow-work, actual deliverables, actual mentor reviews, actual code in your portfolio.
If you're starting from zero on DevOps, the Career Program is a better fit, it includes 4 months of training before the program phase.
Trainees are assigned to structured project tracks mentored by experienced working engineers. The exact mix depends on what the mentor team is shipping that quarter, the categories below are the shape of the work.
Multi-server Linux infrastructure, hardening, SSH and firewall configuration, logging and monitoring, and the operational fundamentals every production system depends on.
Containerising real applications with Docker, working with Docker Compose, container registries, and intro-to-Kubernetes work on managed clusters.
Building, debugging, and extending real Jenkins and GitHub Actions pipelines: automated tests, build artifacts, deployment strategies, rollback handling.
Core AWS (EC2, VPC, RDS, S3, IAM, CloudWatch) applied to live workloads. Cost awareness, security baselines, and the AWS Well-Architected Framework in practice.
Terraform modules for real infrastructure, Ansible roles for configuration management, and the GitOps patterns used in real client engagements.
Prometheus, Grafana, log aggregation, alerting, and the SRE-style work of making sure systems stay up, and that you know fast when they don't.
Specific project allocations are made at intake based on intern skill profile and the team's current pipeline.
The difference between an internship that lands you a job and an internship that doesn't is whether the work was real and whether the people reviewing it were practitioners. Here's how we structure both.
The engineers reviewing your work are practising DevOps engineers on the team's client engagements. Their feedback is the same standard their colleagues get.
You're physically on site at the Kannur campus for the duration. You sit with mentors. You see how a senior engineer thinks when something breaks.
Each project has clear deliverables, review cadences, and acceptance criteria. You leave the program with documented work, not just hours logged.
On successful completion you receive a training completion certificate documenting the work you delivered. That's a verifiable signal an employer can call.
Trainees who complete the program go through Techcake's career pipeline, designed to convert the work you did into the offer you want.
A working engineer rewrites your resume and LinkedIn around the work you actually shipped, not generic 'team player' language.
Recorded, scored mock interviews on DevOps fundamentals and on the projects in your portfolio, with practical feedback.
Lifetime access to the Techcake alumni Slack and WhatsApp, for job referrals, technical questions, and a working network that outlasts the program.
