THE 3RD HIGHEST PAYING TECH ROLE IN THE US IN 2023

Site Reliability Engineering was the third highest paying tech job in 2023 according to Forbes.

Despite the clear appetite for SREs in the job market, people who are interested in transitioning into the role are struggling to get started.

From the outside the SRE role can seem like a mystical object that can be seen but never quite reached.

Stop endlessly scrolling the internet for scattered SRE resources hoping for the best.

For many aspiring Site Reliability Engineers (SREs), the primary challenge lies in acquiring the necessary skills and experience to excel in this role. The issue isn't about uncertainty regarding the career path but rather the frustration of not finding a centralised and reliable source of information. Prospective SREs often face the daunting task of searching for scattered resources that can help them build the required expertise.

Those in this position spend countless hours scouring the internet for fragmented knowledge, hoping to piece together the intricate puzzle of SRE skills and experience. It can be an isolating journey, characterised by uncertainty about where to start and which sources are genuinely valuable. The lack of a clear roadmap and centralisation of vital information only adds to the frustration. Once you've acquired the technical skills you have to start the process all over again around career development and landing an SRE job.

The "Becoming an SRE" course offers a solution tailored to address this common problem. I've meticulously crafted this course, understanding the challenges faced by aspiring SREs like yourself. I've leveraged my personal experience, insights from industry experts, and direct involvement in hiring SREs to create a cohesive and comprehensive learning experience.
