🔗 Apply to work with me here: https://page.cloudtechexec.net/skool Most engineers trying to break into cloud ask the same question: how do I build a portfolio when I have never worked in cloud? In this video I give you the exact three projects to build, how to document each one, how to talk about them on LinkedIn while you are building, and how to explain them in an interview so they actually land. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ IN THIS VIDEO ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ • Why the portfolio matters more than the certification — and what hiring managers actually see when they click your GitHub • Project 1: Infrastructure and automation — full Terraform environment with VNet, NSGs, VM, storage, and remote state • Project 2: Monitoring and alerting — Azure Monitor, Log Analytics, KQL queries, alert rules, and Logic App notifications • Project 3: CI/CD pipeline — GitHub Actions or Azure DevOps with validation, approval gates, and branch protection • The four-part GitHub readme that turns a project into a hiring signal • The LinkedIn post structure that makes recruiters reach out before you apply • How to explain your projects in the interview so they demonstrate judgment, not just knowledge #cloudengineering #azure #cloudportfolio
