  1. the software engineering Market is the software engineering Market is brutal out there but in this video I'm brutal out there but in this video I'm brutal out there but in this video I'm going to show you what you should be going to show you what you should be going to show you what you should be learning instead of grinding lead code learning instead of grinding lead code learning instead of grinding lead code let's jump in I am going to go through a let's jump in I am going to go through a let's jump in I am going to go through a report from Cube careers about the state report from Cube careers about the state report from Cube careers about the state of kubernetes jobs in the fourth quarter of kubernetes jobs in the fourth quarter of kubernetes jobs in the fourth quarter of of of 2024 and as you can see here the most 2024 and as you can see here the most 2024 and as you can see here the most popular job title in the kubernetes popular job title in the kubernetes popular job title in the kubernetes market is software engineer which might market is software engineer which might market is software engineer which might be very surprising because you might be very surprising because you might be very surprising because you might think that it's just for infrastructure think that it's just for infrastructure think that it's just for infrastructure devops and platform Engineers but no devops and platform Engineers but no devops and platform Engineers but no there is a different Trend happening and there is a different Trend happening and there is a different Trend happening and this is why you should be learning this is why you should be learning this is why you should be learning kubernetes today every quarter this kubernetes today every quarter this kubernetes today every quarter this company Cube careers reports this company Cube careers reports this company Cube careers reports this um publishes this report where they go um publishes this report where they go um publishes this report where they go through uh 25,000 jobs and then filter through uh 25,000 jobs and then filter through uh 25,000 jobs and then filter them and create graphs and statistics them and create graphs and statistics them and create graphs and statistics out of them so the first part of the out of them so the first part of the out of them so the first part of the report is the salary report is the salary report is the salary so this is the worldwide salary so this is the worldwide salary so this is the worldwide salary converted to US dollars and here we see converted to US dollars and here we see converted to US dollars and here we see that the average worldwide salary is $154,000 so this is not very clear $154,000 so this is not very clear because it takes the worldwide because it takes the worldwide because it takes the worldwide currencies and and converts them to USD currencies and and converts them to USD currencies and and converts them to USD so that's not very accurate so um we so that's not very accurate so um we so that's not very accurate so um we will get into the American salaries will get into the American salaries will get into the American salaries right after this so the most of the right after this so the most of the right after this so the most of the kubernetes jobs are located in North kubernetes jobs are located in North kubernetes jobs are located in North America America America and with Europe in second place and I

  2. and with Europe in second place and I and with Europe in second place and I myself live in Europe in the Netherlands myself live in Europe in the Netherlands myself live in Europe in the Netherlands and here there are plenty of kubernetes and here there are plenty of kubernetes and here there are plenty of kubernetes jobs interestingly when you check out jobs interestingly when you check out jobs interestingly when you check out the statistics for this the graphs for the statistics for this the graphs for the statistics for this the graphs for this you see that the number of this you see that the number of this you see that the number of kubernetes jobs in North America is kubernetes jobs in North America is kubernetes jobs in North America is rising now I haven't checked the rising now I haven't checked the rising now I haven't checked the statistics but I don't think the amount statistics but I don't think the amount statistics but I don't think the amount of software engineering jobs is rising of software engineering jobs is rising of software engineering jobs is rising but kubernetes jobs are so this is why but kubernetes jobs are so this is why but kubernetes jobs are so this is why I'm advising you to learn kubernetes I'm advising you to learn kubernetes I'm advising you to learn kubernetes even if you are a software engineer so even if you are a software engineer so even if you are a software engineer so let's check out the salary ranges for let's check out the salary ranges for let's check out the salary ranges for North North North America in the fourth quarter the America in the fourth quarter the America in the fourth quarter the average minimum salary is average minimum salary is average minimum salary is 139k and the maximum salary is 200k and 139k and the maximum salary is 200k and 139k and the maximum salary is 200k and interestingly these are 3.3% lower than interestingly these are 3.3% lower than interestingly these are 3.3% lower than the average of the entire year so the the average of the entire year so the the average of the entire year so the Sal the average salary had minimum Sal the average salary had minimum Sal the average salary had minimum salary has decreased in the fourth salary has decreased in the fourth salary has decreased in the fourth quarter also the maximum salary has quarter also the maximum salary has quarter also the maximum salary has decreased by 1.3% which is interesting decreased by 1.3% which is interesting decreased by 1.3% which is interesting but it's a sign of the market I suppose but it's a sign of the market I suppose but it's a sign of the market I suppose now let's check out the average salary now let's check out the average salary now let's check out the average salary in Europe the range here is in Europe the range here is in Europe the range here is 66,000 the minimum to 66,000 the minimum to 66,000 the minimum to 87,000 now this is you have to keep in 87,000 now this is you have to keep in 87,000 now this is you have to keep in mind that Europeans are compensated very mind that Europeans are compensated very mind that Europeans are compensated very differently than Americans because in differently than Americans because in differently than Americans because in general ener we have social services general ener we have social services general ener we have social services like government services Healthcare Etc

  3. like government services Healthcare Etc like government services Healthcare Etc so our our salaries are lower but our so our our salaries are lower but our so our our salaries are lower but our quality of life may be even higher even quality of life may be even higher even quality of life may be even higher even though we get paid less now the highest though we get paid less now the highest though we get paid less now the highest recorded salary in Europe was up to € recorded salary in Europe was up to € recorded salary in Europe was up to € 233,000 which is very impressive which 233,000 which is very impressive which 233,000 which is very impressive which is a head of engineering role published is a head of engineering role published is a head of engineering role published in the third quarter of in the third quarter of in the third quarter of 2024 so here you see that these even in 2024 so here you see that these even in 2024 so here you see that these even in like management and Lead roles like management and Lead roles like management and Lead roles kubernetes is now playing a huge role kubernetes is now playing a huge role kubernetes is now playing a huge role and as uh from I can speak for myself and as uh from I can speak for myself and as uh from I can speak for myself that when I was working as a consultant that when I was working as a consultant that when I was working as a consultant I was being paid about uh I was being paid about uh I was being paid about uh €70,000 a year and I had a company car €70,000 a year and I had a company car €70,000 a year and I had a company car and some other benefits so I think this and some other benefits so I think this and some other benefits so I think this is in line with what I have experienced is in line with what I have experienced is in line with what I have experienced myself but now I make much more money by myself but now I make much more money by myself but now I make much more money by working much less by because I work as a working much less by because I work as a working much less by because I work as a freelancer and that's a topic for a freelancer and that's a topic for a freelancer and that's a topic for a different video but if you want to know different video but if you want to know different video but if you want to know more about that um I will let you know more about that um I will let you know more about that um I will let you know how to get in touch with me soon how to get in touch with me soon how to get in touch with me soon so the kubernetes job market seeks so the kubernetes job market seeks so the kubernetes job market seeks software engineers devops and platform software engineers devops and platform software engineers devops and platform Engineers now this is super interesting Engineers now this is super interesting Engineers now this is super interesting to me I was really surprised to see that to me I was really surprised to see that to me I was really surprised to see that software Engineers have the software software Engineers have the software software Engineers have the software engineering jobs have such a engineering jobs have such a engineering jobs have such a huge um portion of these jobs and I'm huge um portion of these jobs and I'm huge um portion of these jobs and I'm surprised by this because I I Al always

  4. surprised by this because I I Al always surprised by this because I I Al always associate kubernetes with the associate kubernetes with the associate kubernetes with the infrastructure side because I come from infrastructure side because I come from infrastructure side because I come from the Ops side right Dev Ops I'm a Dev Ops the Ops side right Dev Ops I'm a Dev Ops the Ops side right Dev Ops I'm a Dev Ops engineer but what you see now is that engineer but what you see now is that engineer but what you see now is that the trend in Enterprise companies and the trend in Enterprise companies and the trend in Enterprise companies and even startups too is that software even startups too is that software even startups too is that software Engineers are being pushed more and more Engineers are being pushed more and more Engineers are being pushed more and more towards the infrastructure side of towards the infrastructure side of towards the infrastructure side of things probably also because AI is things probably also because AI is things probably also because AI is taking over a lot of their work they're taking over a lot of their work they're taking over a lot of their work they're ual like brand work of writing the code ual like brand work of writing the code ual like brand work of writing the code that can almost always be outsourced to that can almost always be outsourced to that can almost always be outsourced to to AI these days you need the engineers to AI these days you need the engineers to AI these days you need the engineers to prompt the AI but the actual sitting to prompt the AI but the actual sitting to prompt the AI but the actual sitting and writing the time consuming stuff can and writing the time consuming stuff can and writing the time consuming stuff can be outsourced and now companies are now be outsourced and now companies are now be outsourced and now companies are now pushing these infrastructure tasks pushing these infrastructure tasks pushing these infrastructure tasks towards software Engineers I think that towards software Engineers I think that towards software Engineers I think that is what is happening here now this is of is what is happening here now this is of is what is happening here now this is of course bit bad news for us devops course bit bad news for us devops course bit bad news for us devops platform Engineers as we'll see later platform Engineers as we'll see later platform Engineers as we'll see later too but but you can really really stand too but but you can really really stand too but but you can really really stand out from the crowd if you are a good out from the crowd if you are a good out from the crowd if you are a good software engineer and you have software engineer and you have software engineer and you have kubernetes skills you're are going to be kubernetes skills you're are going to be kubernetes skills you're are going to be a highly requested and and you will have a highly requested and and you will have a highly requested and and you will have a a skill set that is very useful in a a skill set that is very useful in a a skill set that is very useful in today's market so kubernetes might sound today's market so kubernetes might sound today's market so kubernetes might sound like super um overwhelming and so much like super um overwhelming and so much like super um overwhelming and so much to learn but it's not that difficult to learn but it's not that difficult to learn but it's not that difficult kubernetes is actually quite easy to kubernetes is actually quite easy to kubernetes is actually quite easy to learn it's just an API that you talk to learn it's just an API that you talk to learn it's just an API that you talk to it's a very big API Pi but software it's a very big API Pi but software it's a very big API Pi but software Engineers like I'm not a software Engineers like I'm not a software Engineers like I'm not a software engineer but you guys have been studying

  5. engineer but you guys have been studying engineer but you guys have been studying mathematics and algorithms you can mathematics and algorithms you can mathematics and algorithms you can handle these yaml files but if you want handle these yaml files but if you want handle these yaml files but if you want to learn how to write these yaml files to learn how to write these yaml files to learn how to write these yaml files if you want to learn kubernetes in the if you want to learn kubernetes in the if you want to learn kubernetes in the proper way then I highly recommend you proper way then I highly recommend you proper way then I highly recommend you check out my kubernetes fundamentals check out my kubernetes fundamentals check out my kubernetes fundamentals course which is available in at course which is available in at course which is available in at school.com cubecraft this is my devops school.com cubecraft this is my devops school.com cubecraft this is my devops kubernetes community this is an 8 Hour kubernetes community this is an 8 Hour kubernetes community this is an 8 Hour course that will set you up with a full course that will set you up with a full course that will set you up with a full introduction to kubernetes um and which introduction to kubernetes um and which introduction to kubernetes um and which prepares you for the ckad and cka exams prepares you for the ckad and cka exams prepares you for the ckad and cka exams but it does it in a practical way it's but it does it in a practical way it's but it does it in a practical way it's not just a lame theoretical PowerPoint not just a lame theoretical PowerPoint not just a lame theoretical PowerPoint no we like from the first module we sit no we like from the first module we sit no we like from the first module we sit there and write code together and after there and write code together and after there and write code together and after that you can uh continue with the home that you can uh continue with the home that you can uh continue with the home lab course and there's just so much more lab course and there's just so much more lab course and there's just so much more here and you can ask questions and get here and you can ask questions and get here and you can ask questions and get uh technical support by joining one of uh technical support by joining one of uh technical support by joining one of the Q&A calls that I host every week so the Q&A calls that I host every week so the Q&A calls that I host every week so check it out I think you might like it check it out I think you might like it check it out I think you might like it I've been getting thousands of good I've been getting thousands of good I've been getting thousands of good reviews on my courses so check it out so reviews on my courses so check it out so reviews on my courses so check it out so as I said interestingly devops platform as I said interestingly devops platform as I said interestingly devops platform and Dev saup positions were only they and Dev saup positions were only they and Dev saup positions were only they they only make up about 9 to six and 4% they only make up about 9 to six and 4% they only make up about 9 to six and 4% so that is 19% whereas the software so that is 19% whereas the software so that is 19% whereas the software engineers make up engineers make up engineers make up 42% so yeah devops engineers and 42% so yeah devops engineers and 42% so yeah devops engineers and software Engineers are going to be software Engineers are going to be software Engineers are going to be competing for the same kind of work competing for the same kind of work competing for the same kind of work apparently and um this is also true for apparently and um this is also true for apparently and um this is also true for the combined for all

  6. the combined for all the combined for all quarters and what's interesting when you quarters and what's interesting when you quarters and what's interesting when you check out the trend the trends here is check out the trend the trends here is check out the trend the trends here is that the job titles without software that the job titles without software that the job titles without software engineering title are actually engineering title are actually engineering title are actually decreasing here so devops engineer went decreasing here so devops engineer went decreasing here so devops engineer went from but what is it approximately 13% to from but what is it approximately 13% to from but what is it approximately 13% to 9% platform engineer went from 13 to 9% platform engineer went from 13 to 9% platform engineer went from 13 to maybe 6% so all of these titles are maybe 6% so all of these titles are maybe 6% so all of these titles are decreasing and that is worrying me quite decreasing and that is worrying me quite decreasing and that is worrying me quite a bit uh seeing that these but it it a bit uh seeing that these but it it a bit uh seeing that these but it it does um agree with the trend I just does um agree with the trend I just does um agree with the trend I just spotted where software Engineers are spotted where software Engineers are spotted where software Engineers are taking over more of the platform devops taking over more of the platform devops taking over more of the platform devops side of things or at least they are side of things or at least they are side of things or at least they are asked to by management and whether they asked to by management and whether they asked to by management and whether they do it that remains to be seen I know do it that remains to be seen I know do it that remains to be seen I know plenty of developers who only want to plenty of developers who only want to plenty of developers who only want to right software and don't want to be right software and don't want to be right software and don't want to be bothering with uh with operations and bothering with uh with operations and bothering with uh with operations and with infrastructure with infrastructure with infrastructure so understandably so interestingly these so understandably so interestingly these so understandably so interestingly these jobs are decreasing but it's the fourth jobs are decreasing but it's the fourth jobs are decreasing but it's the fourth quarter budgets are lower we also see it quarter budgets are lower we also see it quarter budgets are lower we also see it here um in here um in here um in 2023 between Q3 and Q4 there was a sharp 2023 between Q3 and Q4 there was a sharp 2023 between Q3 and Q4 there was a sharp decrease in devops engineering roles so decrease in devops engineering roles so decrease in devops engineering roles so yeah I don't I don't attach too much yeah I don't I don't attach too much yeah I don't I don't attach too much value to this but what's interesting is value to this but what's interesting is value to this but what's interesting is that machine learning engineer is rising that machine learning engineer is rising that machine learning engineer is rising and you're we're going to be seeing a and you're we're going to be seeing a and you're we're going to be seeing a steady rise steady rise steady rise here kubernetes jobs allow remote work

  7. here kubernetes jobs allow remote work here kubernetes jobs allow remote work of some sort but what is interesting of some sort but what is interesting of some sort but what is interesting here is that 50% of the remote jobs here is that 50% of the remote jobs here is that 50% of the remote jobs required a selected candidate to work required a selected candidate to work required a selected candidate to work remotely within a specified remotely within a specified remotely within a specified geography and 40% allow for hybrid work geography and 40% allow for hybrid work geography and 40% allow for hybrid work so it's what is it so it's what is it so it's what is it well n about 90 93% 99% yeah 99% of the well n about 90 93% 99% yeah 99% of the well n about 90 93% 99% yeah 99% of the jobs either require to work hybrid or jobs either require to work hybrid or jobs either require to work hybrid or work in the same geography so the point work in the same geography so the point work in the same geography so the point I'm making here is if you are outside of I'm making here is if you are outside of I'm making here is if you are outside of the US and you're trying to get a remote the US and you're trying to get a remote the US and you're trying to get a remote job in the US it's basically no chance job in the US it's basically no chance job in the US it's basically no chance there is basically no no way you're there is basically no no way you're there is basically no no way you're going to get that you need to be really going to get that you need to be really going to get that you need to be really special in order to get that so I have a special in order to get that so I have a special in order to get that so I have a few Indian friends they spend hours a few Indian friends they spend hours a few Indian friends they spend hours a day applying to remote jobs in the US day applying to remote jobs in the US day applying to remote jobs in the US they have no luck and then they complain they have no luck and then they complain they have no luck and then they complain that they are SP wasting their time when that they are SP wasting their time when that they are SP wasting their time when then I tell them yeah you are wasting then I tell them yeah you are wasting then I tell them yeah you are wasting your time because there's no chance that your time because there's no chance that your time because there's no chance that you're going to get one of these jobs you're going to get one of these jobs you're going to get one of these jobs it's just too much competition sorry but it's just too much competition sorry but it's just too much competition sorry but that's the that's the that's the that's the that's the that's the truth you have to increase your own truth you have to increase your own truth you have to increase your own chances on call there's still very small chances on call there's still very small chances on call there's still very small portion of kubernetes jobs I've never portion of kubernetes jobs I've never portion of kubernetes jobs I've never been on call for kubernetes jobs myself been on call for kubernetes jobs myself been on call for kubernetes jobs myself fortunately and let's check out the fortunately and let's check out the fortunately and let's check out the popular Technologies for kubernetes jobs popular Technologies for kubernetes jobs popular Technologies for kubernetes jobs now one big flaw in this um this survey

  8. now one big flaw in this um this survey now one big flaw in this um this survey is that they don't address gitops which is that they don't address gitops which is that they don't address gitops which is very strange to me I don't understand is very strange to me I don't understand is very strange to me I don't understand why they don't have Argo CD and flux CD why they don't have Argo CD and flux CD why they don't have Argo CD and flux CD in here that being said Docker is of in here that being said Docker is of in here that being said Docker is of course still very um much course still very um much course still very um much represented because usually containers represented because usually containers represented because usually containers are um run in Docker locally and then are um run in Docker locally and then are um run in Docker locally and then you would bring them to production on you would bring them to production on you would bring them to production on kubernetes which is the container kubernetes which is the container kubernetes which is the container orchestrator postgress and kfka they are orchestrator postgress and kfka they are orchestrator postgress and kfka they are still pretty high up and Helm still pretty high up and Helm still pretty high up and Helm interestingly Helm is less than interestingly Helm is less than interestingly Helm is less than postgress but it also shows a bit like postgress but it also shows a bit like postgress but it also shows a bit like these jobs job descriptions are created these jobs job descriptions are created these jobs job descriptions are created by like managers who are not that by like managers who are not that by like managers who are not that technical right so they don't list all technical right so they don't list all technical right so they don't list all of the Technologies point being of the Technologies point being of the Technologies point being postgress is actually really really postgress is actually really really postgress is actually really really popular so focus on postgress which is popular so focus on postgress which is popular so focus on postgress which is what I do so let's check out the what I do so let's check out the what I do so let's check out the programming languages that are popular programming languages that are popular programming languages that are popular for kubernetes jobs number one is Python for kubernetes jobs number one is Python for kubernetes jobs number one is Python and as I also advise all of my students and as I also advise all of my students and as I also advise all of my students Learn Python it's used everywhere Learn Python it's used everywhere Learn Python it's used everywhere especially here in Europe there are very especially here in Europe there are very especially here in Europe there are very few go jobs here but there's tons of few go jobs here but there's tons of few go jobs here but there's tons of python work and I I have a feeling that python work and I I have a feeling that python work and I I have a feeling that go is more popular in the us but as you go is more popular in the us but as you go is more popular in the us but as you see here python is requested almost for see here python is requested almost for see here python is requested almost for every job and it's because it's so every job and it's because it's so every job and it's because it's so useful and also with when thinking about useful and also with when thinking about useful and also with when thinking about Ai and the future of that python is Ai and the future of that python is Ai and the future of that python is basically the language of AI so you will

  9. basically the language of AI so you will basically the language of AI so you will do very well learning Python and very do very well learning Python and very do very well learning Python and very interesting that they also have interesting that they also have interesting that they also have JavaScript here but that of course is um JavaScript here but that of course is um JavaScript here but that of course is um to be expected when they have software to be expected when they have software to be expected when they have software engineering as the most popular title so engineering as the most popular title so engineering as the most popular title so Learn Python maybe go and the you're Learn Python maybe go and the you're Learn Python maybe go and the you're good to good to good to go whenever a programming language was go whenever a programming language was go whenever a programming language was mentioned there was a 56% chance that mentioned there was a 56% chance that mentioned there was a 56% chance that python was included so there you have it python was included so there you have it python was included so there you have it and this also shows in the graphs that and this also shows in the graphs that and this also shows in the graphs that python is steadily python is steadily python is steadily rising and interestingly shell has had a rising and interestingly shell has had a rising and interestingly shell has had a sharp decrease but I wonder if they sharp decrease but I wonder if they sharp decrease but I wonder if they write shell or bash but the the write shell or bash but the the write shell or bash but the the languages C++ and typescript are languages C++ and typescript are languages C++ and typescript are basically stabilizing so yeah in terms basically stabilizing so yeah in terms basically stabilizing so yeah in terms of the kubernetes world maybe those of the kubernetes world maybe those of the kubernetes world maybe those aren't the best ones to focus on if aren't the best ones to focus on if aren't the best ones to focus on if you're learning a new you're learning a new you're learning a new language what cicd tools are popular in language what cicd tools are popular in language what cicd tools are popular in kuet jobs let's check this out so kuet jobs let's check this out so kuet jobs let's check this out so interestingly Jenkins is on the top here interestingly Jenkins is on the top here interestingly Jenkins is on the top here followed by gitlab followed by GitHub followed by gitlab followed by GitHub followed by gitlab followed by GitHub actions actions actions so I always advise not learning Jenkins so I always advise not learning Jenkins so I always advise not learning Jenkins for the sake of learning Jenkins for the sake of learning Jenkins for the sake of learning Jenkins really investigate if the company that really investigate if the company that really investigate if the company that you're working or want to work for uses you're working or want to work for uses you're working or want to work for uses Jenkins because I have only seen it in Jenkins because I have only seen it in Jenkins because I have only seen it in my first job and all of the jobs I've my first job and all of the jobs I've my first job and all of the jobs I've had after that I haven't seen Jenkins at

  10. had after that I haven't seen Jenkins at had after that I haven't seen Jenkins at all we are we've been Mo I've been all we are we've been Mo I've been all we are we've been Mo I've been mostly working in Azure environments and mostly working in Azure environments and mostly working in Azure environments and then there we have been using Azure then there we have been using Azure then there we have been using Azure devops or GitHub actions mostly so even devops or GitHub actions mostly so even devops or GitHub actions mostly so even though it's the most popular tool here though it's the most popular tool here though it's the most popular tool here really investigate your local market and really investigate your local market and really investigate your local market and see if you actually need to learn see if you actually need to learn see if you actually need to learn it because I don't think I'm not sure it because I don't think I'm not sure it because I don't think I'm not sure how how much longer Jenkins is going to how how much longer Jenkins is going to how how much longer Jenkins is going to be around be around be around honestly cicd tools in the graphs well honestly cicd tools in the graphs well honestly cicd tools in the graphs well Jenkins has had a rise here as you see Jenkins has had a rise here as you see Jenkins has had a rise here as you see and gitlab is decreasing but and gitlab is decreasing but and gitlab is decreasing but interestingly GitHub actions is interestingly GitHub actions is interestingly GitHub actions is increasing and I heard some rumors that increasing and I heard some rumors that increasing and I heard some rumors that GitHub actions is going to be the new GitHub actions is going to be the new GitHub actions is going to be the new aure devops now that Microsoft has taken aure devops now that Microsoft has taken aure devops now that Microsoft has taken over G GitHub then they're not putting over G GitHub then they're not putting over G GitHub then they're not putting as much Azure um development into Azure as much Azure um development into Azure as much Azure um development into Azure devops anymore it's the GitHub that devops anymore it's the GitHub that devops anymore it's the GitHub that they're focusing most on so I I they're focusing most on so I I they're focusing most on so I I personally also just use GitHub actions personally also just use GitHub actions personally also just use GitHub actions and it works so well so you never can and it works so well so you never can and it works so well so you never can never go wrong in learning GitHub and never go wrong in learning GitHub and never go wrong in learning GitHub and GitHub actions observability of course GitHub actions observability of course GitHub actions observability of course this gold standard of grafana and this gold standard of grafana and this gold standard of grafana and Prometheus remains if you want to get a Prometheus remains if you want to get a Prometheus remains if you want to get a kubernetes job you have to get kubernetes job you have to get kubernetes job you have to get experience with these types of tools and experience with these types of tools and experience with these types of tools and in my home lab course I will show you in my home lab course I will show you in my home lab course I will show you exactly how to set that up on your own exactly how to set that up on your own exactly how to set that up on your own kubernetes home lab with gitops and um kubernetes home lab with gitops and um kubernetes home lab with gitops and um you can pra start practicing and

Summary

The tech market is competitive, but learning Kubernetes is recommended over grinding LeetCode, based on a Cube Careers report. Despite a slight salary dip in Q4, Kubernetes jobs are rising, especially in North America and Europe, with average salaries reaching $154,000 worldwide. The takeaway is to acquire Kubernetes skills for better career prospects.
