Who our DevOps Bootcamp is for
Who our DevOps Bootcamp is for
It's designed for Software Engineers, System Administrators, Network Engineers, QA Testers, or anyone in tech who wants hands-on, instructor-led training on the toolchains and technologies that streamline the software delivery process, automate infrastructure provisioning, and enable continuous improvement and feedback.
What is our DevOps Workplace Simulator
What is our DevOps Workplace Simulator
We provide you with your own virtual machine, and access to a Google Cloud project, where you'll create your own mock tech startup, with you as the DevOps Engineer.
As we progress through the modules of the course, you'll apply your training to transform your startup, and in doing so, gain practical, first-hand experience of solving the real-world challenges you'll face as a DevOps Engineer.
Neil, Technical Product Owner
I recently completed The Jump's Digital DevOps Bootcamp, and I must say it was an incredible experience from start to finish. The curriculum was expertly designed, covering everything from basic principles to advanced techniques in DevOps practices and tools.
The hands-on projects and real-world simulations were particularly valuable. I highly recommend this bootcamp to anyone
Your DevOps learning journey
Weeks 1-3: Intro and Tooling
Once we've introduced you to your own dedicated virtual machine and how to access it with SSH, you'll learn about Linux, Version Control and Markdown
Weeks 4-7: Build a Start-up
Build your understanding of both the Software Development Life Cycle and the architecture and requirements of web applications by setting up its infrastructure. Create servers and databases, create containers with Docker and orchestrate them. Learn to create staging environments, manage security certification, documentation, and backup and recovery.
Weeks 8-12: Automate Tasks
Move from click-ops to creating fully automated CI/CD pipelines. Learn to automate workflows, docker image creation and testing; Orchestrate containers with Kubernetes; learn about artefact promotion; load balancing and certification management.
Weeks 13-14: Migrate with Kubernetes
Apply what you've learnt in the previous module to use Kubernetes to deploy to staging and then production environments. Learn to monitor the health of your Kubernetes cluster with Prometheus, visualise it with Grafana, and log it with an EFK stack.
Weeks 15-18: Scale-up phase
Move beyond on premises infrastructure to cloud based infrastructure with Google Cloud Platform (GCP), and programatically provision infrastructure with Infrastructure as Code using Terraform. Learn to use Google Compute Engine, and GCP Artifact Registry
Weeks 19-20: Completion
Combine what you learn in the previous module together with Google Kubernetes Engine and Workload Identity Federation, to move all your simulated company's infrastructure and CI/CD processes from local servers to GCP, provisioning infrastructure with Terraform. You have now built a complete end-to-end CI/CD pipeline for automating the full Software Development Life Cycle, and deployed it to the cloud, to scale up and down with demand.
Lee, upskilling as a Software Engineer
I'd spent about a year considering whether to do this course, and I'm so glad I took 'the jump'.
I took this course on to extend my software engineering skillset. The curriculum is specifically designed and built in a way to mimic a real world environment, being presented with actual challenges to learn about and solve. Anto, the instructor was excellent and has significant experience from the field which he was able to fully bring to the course. I highly recommend it to anyone thinking of doing this course!

Workplace Simulator
Workplace Simulator
With access to a dedicated virtual machine and a Google Cloud project, we set you up as a DevOps Engineer in your own mock tech startup. As you apply your learning to transform your startup, you'll get first hand experience of solving exactly the challenges you'll face as a DevOps Engineer.
Small interactive cohorts
Small interactive cohorts
Some schools put 150+ students on a cohort, and lecture them. Some online courses are just videos with no support. We run live, interactive sessions, for small cohorts (max 10), and give you real-time personalised support and practical experience.
Led by an experienced Instructor
Led by an experienced Instructor
Many schools use their recent grads as instructors. We don’t. Your DevOps instructor is a Principal Software Engineer and DevOps Lead with 15+ years of experience. They intuitively know the tech and have a wealth of wisdom.
Complete DevOps training
Complete DevOps training
Lots of schools focus on certification. We don't. Whilst a certificate is great, it's not required, and our training covers all aspects of the role of a DevOps engineer and encompasses much more than a single certification.
As accessible as possible
As accessible as possible
We make our training as accessible as possible. We run our training at a discount to the market; we offer the training remotely so you can learn from anywhere; we record every session in case you miss it or need to recap; we give you whatever support you need.
