To thrive as an Azure DevOps Engineer, you’ll need a strong mix of cloud knowledge and automation skills. Here are the top 5 must-have skills: Azure Cloud Expertise – A solid foundation in Microsoft Azure services. CI/CD (Continuous Integration & Deployment) – Automating the software release process. Infrastructure as Code (IaC) – Tools like Terraform or ARM templates to manage infrastructure. Version Control – Using Git or TFVC to manage source code. Scripting & Automation – Writing scripts in PowerShell, Bash, or Python to automate tasks.
Azure DevOps includes a full suite of tools, including: Git and TFVC (Team Foundation Version Control) for source code management Azure Pipelines for CI/CD Azure Boards for work tracking Azure Repos, Test Plans, and Artifacts for a full DevOps cycle
Not necessarily. You don’t have to be a full-time coder to work in DevOps. But having basic programming or scripting knowledge (especially in Python, Bash, or PowerShell) can help a lot and open more advanced roles.
DevOps can seem a bit overwhelming at first because it blends development, operations, automation, and security. But with structured learning, like what we offer at AITA Kolkata, it becomes manageable and even fun. Plus, the demand is huge, so it’s worth the effort!
Python is hands-down one of the most used and loved scripting languages in the DevOps world, thanks to its versatility and readability. PowerShell is also important, especially in Windows environments.
