About Course
About AWS DevOps Engineering
Release engineering on AWS: pipelines, infrastructure as code, and the controls that let you ship on a Friday.
Delivery is where engineering discipline becomes visible. A pipeline either gives a team the confidence to ship on a Friday or it does not, and the difference is design: the right gates, infrastructure that is code, and a rollback somebody has actually rehearsed. This programme builds that system and then hands it over.
Course Overview
12-week AWS DevOps Engineering training (72 hours) covering CodeBuild, CodePipeline, CloudFormation, CDK, pipeline security and quality gates. Live online and classroom.
Why Learn AWS DevOps Engineering
DevOps and platform roles sit at the top of the developer-adjacent pay band in India because the work multiplies every other engineer on the team. Product companies pay a premium for someone who can show a delivery system they built and another team adopted.
The discipline also transfers. Once you have versioned infrastructure, secured a supply chain and put progressive delivery in place, you can apply the same method to any stack — the AWS services change, the engineering does not.
Who Should Join This Course
- Developers — Owning the path from commit to production
- System Administrators — Moving from manual release to automated delivery
- QA and Automation Engineers — Crossing into pipeline and release work
- Fresh Graduates — Targeting DevOps roles with a demonstrable portfolio
- Technical Leads — Needing delivery they can audit and repeat
- Consultants — Standardising delivery across client environments
Prerequisites
No prior AWS experience required unless the course page states otherwise. Basic IT familiarity, comfort with a web console and command-line basics are enough to start; AWS itself, its vocabulary and its operating discipline are taught from first principles.
Learning Objectives
- Design a pipeline from commit to production with the right gates
- Write and refactor CloudFormation that a team can maintain
- Build infrastructure as code with the CDK and control drift
- Implement progressive deployment: blue-green, canary and rollback
- Secure the supply chain: artefact signing, secrets and least privilege
- Insert quality gates without making delivery unbearably slow
- Version and release your infrastructure like application code
- Ship a full delivery system another team can adopt
AWS Services and Tools Covered
AWS CodeBuild, AWS CodePipeline, AWS CloudFormation, AWS CDK, AWS CodeDeploy, Amazon ECR together with pipeline security practice, infrastructure-as-code testing method, and the ISO 27001 and DPDP obligations that apply to change control and audit evidence.
Career Opportunities After This Programme
- DevOps Engineer
- CI/CD Engineer
- Platform Engineer (AWS)
- Release Engineer
- Build Engineer
- Automation Engineer
Hands-on Practice and Capstone
Capstone: Build a complete delivery system for a real application: repository and review workflow, a CodeBuild and CodePipeline pipeline with tests and a security gate, infrastructure modelled in CDK with drift detection, progressive deployment through CodeDeploy with a rehearsed rollback, artefact scanning and policy enforcement in the path, then hand the whole system to another team and support their first release without touching it yourself.
Production scenario: A team ships on a Friday and the release fails halfway with no rollback plan. Reproduce the delivery path, identify where the gate that would have caught it was missing, rebuild the pipeline with progressive delivery and an automatic rollback, and prove the fix by shipping the same change again deliberately.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is AWS DevOps Engineering training at SkilBrill?
It is the delivery track: source control strategy, CI with CodeBuild, progressive deployment with CodeDeploy, infrastructure as code in CloudFormation and CDK, pipeline security and quality gates. SkilBrill runs it over 12 weeks and 72 hours and finishes with a delivery system another team adopts.
How is this different from AWS Cloud Operations?
Cloud Operations is the run side — monitoring, patching, incident response and cost. This course is the build and release side: pipelines, infrastructure as code and shipping controls. The two meet at automation, but they are different jobs on a team.
How is this different from the AWS DevOps Engineer Professional course?
That course is organised around the DOP exam objectives and its practice tests. This one is organised around building a delivery system you can hand to another team — no exam code in the title, no question bank driving the syllabus.
What does the syllabus cover?
Eight modules: version control and branching, CI with CodeBuild, CD and release strategy, CloudFormation, advanced IaC with the CDK and drift control, pipeline security and supply chain, testing and quality gates, and a capstone delivery system.
What is the duration and fee?
12 weeks, three sessions a week of two hours each, totalling 72 classroom hours. Fees are ₹45,000 – ₹75,000 depending on batch and mode.
Do I need to be a developer first?
You should be comfortable reading code and working from a command line, and you do not need prior AWS experience. Infrastructure as code is written in YAML, JSON, TypeScript or Python, and the course teaches the language pieces it actually uses from scratch.
What jobs can I get after AWS DevOps Engineering?
DevOps engineer, CI/CD engineer, platform engineer, release engineer and build engineer. In India these typically start at ₹6–18 LPA, with platform roles at product companies at the higher end.
