Never underestimate how much time and effort you can waste by trying to automate a process you do not understand manually.

How to get a job as an AI Engineer: AI engineering is one of those fields where it's actually easier to get a job through non-traditional paths a lot of founders building products need AI engineers (they want to integrate AI, train models, and build new products on top of it) so here's my workflow for getting a job as an AI engineer: 1: Build your personal brand on X this should be your main platform follow AI startup founders, reply to them, post valuable content, show your thinking and value 2: Build presence on LinkedIn or GitHub these are more traditional platforms but if you build your own product and it gets traction on GitHub, that's already way stronger than "work experience in a company" 3: Share knowledge in Discord communities OpenAI community, OpenClaw, LangChain (anything directly related to AI engineering) this is where real people hang out and opportunities appear cheat-codes to stand out and get into the top 1%: 1. Build in public show what you're building and how CVs are outdated, people hire those who can build fast, solve problems, train and optimize models 2. Focus on features and exposure study competitor products, understand what works use this knowledge when pitching, it proves you understand the market 3. Do free audits before calls before jumping on a call with a potential client, break down their architecture show what you think is happening and what you would improve (this can also be turned into content on X) 4. Specialize narrowly don't just be "AI engineer" pick a niche: automation, AI agents, infra, etc. this makes you much easier to position 5. Show measurable results metrics matter (money especially) if your work saved or made money, that's what goes into your "CVโ€ main insight: this is a new profession, traditional "work experience" doesn't matter as much what matters is real skill, understanding, and practical experience forget chasing top company interviews right now you have a much better opportunity: - build in public - grow your brand - become visible - potentially earn even more one more thing: everything in this field moves insanely fast whatโ€™s relevant today may be outdated in a year and in two years completely irrelevant so "experience" doesn't matter your real skill is adaptability learning fast constant practice adapt or die.

I used to talk about my education, experience, and previous companies - just reading out my resume. What a waste of a golden opportunity! One day, a friend who was interviewing candidates for his team shared something interesting. ๐˜ ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ ๐˜ฌ๐˜ฏ๐˜ฐ๐˜ธ ๐˜ธ๐˜ฉ๐˜ข๐˜ต ๐˜ฎ๐˜ข๐˜ฌ๐˜ฆ๐˜ด ๐˜ค๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ฅ๐˜ช๐˜ฅ๐˜ข๐˜ต๐˜ฆ๐˜ด ๐˜ด๐˜ต๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ฅ ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ต? ๐˜ž๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ๐˜บ ๐˜ถ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ช๐˜ด ๐˜ฒ๐˜ถ๐˜ฆ๐˜ด๐˜ต๐˜ช๐˜ฐ๐˜ฏ ๐˜ต๐˜ฐ ๐˜ด๐˜ฉ๐˜ฐ๐˜ธ๐˜ค๐˜ข๐˜ด๐˜ฆ ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ๐˜ช๐˜ณ ๐˜ฆ๐˜น๐˜ฑ๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ต๐˜ช๐˜ด๐˜ฆ ๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜ด๐˜ต๐˜ฆ๐˜ข๐˜ฅ ๐˜ฐ๐˜ง ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ข๐˜ฅ๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜จ ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ต ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ๐˜ช๐˜ณ ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ด๐˜ถ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ. I started experimenting with different approaches. After many trials and errors, I found what works best. Now when interviewers ask me to talk about myself, I start with a brief introduction and move to my technical journey: "I have 11 years of experience, with deep expertise in cloud infrastructure and automation. I've built complex solutions across AWS and GCP, specializing in Kubernetes and Infrastructure as Code. I've successfully implemented large-scale migrations, like automating RDS migrations using Python and PGSync, reducing downtime by 60%. I've built and managed multi-environment EKS clusters using custom Terraform modules, supporting hundreds of microservices. Recently, I've focused on DevSecOps, implementing comprehensive security scanning using GitHub Advanced Security suite, CodeQL, and Dependabot. I've also built automated monitoring solutions using Grafana and Prometheus that helped detect critical issues before they impacted users." ๐—ง๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐—บ๐—ฎ๐—ด๐—ถ๐—ฐ ๐—ต๐—ฎ๐—ฝ๐—ฝ๐—ฒ๐—ป๐˜€ ๐—ฎ๐—ณ๐˜๐—ฒ๐—ฟ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ถ๐˜€. The interviewer starts asking questions about Kubernetes, cloud migrations, and security implementations - all areas where I excel! Instead of getting random questions, I get to talk about my strengths for most of the interview. Even when they ask about areas I'm not familiar with, I confidently say: "While I haven't worked extensively with that technology, I'm very interested in learning it. My experience with similar tools would help me pick it up quickly." ๐˜™๐˜ฆ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฃ๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ, ๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜ต๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ท๐˜ช๐˜ฆ๐˜ธ๐˜ด ๐˜ข๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ฏ๐˜ฐ๐˜ต ๐˜ซ๐˜ถ๐˜ด๐˜ต ๐˜ข๐˜ฃ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ต ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ด๐˜ธ๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜จ ๐˜ฒ๐˜ถ๐˜ฆ๐˜ด๐˜ต๐˜ช๐˜ฐ๐˜ฏ๐˜ด - ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ๐˜บ'๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ข๐˜ฃ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ต ๐˜ด๐˜ต๐˜ฆ๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜จ ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ค๐˜ฐ๐˜ฏ๐˜ท๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ด๐˜ข๐˜ต๐˜ช๐˜ฐ๐˜ฏ ๐˜ต๐˜ฐ๐˜ธ๐˜ข๐˜ณ๐˜ฅ๐˜ด ๐˜บ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ณ ๐˜ด๐˜ต๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ๐˜จ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ด.

In System Design, I love discussing how someone would scale a web application. The first answer is always "add more servers and a load balancer." This is where the real fun begins. It's not about which algorithm you choose (Round Robin, Least Connections). It's about whether you understand that a load balancer's real job is to hide the chaos of a distributed system from the user. Until it can't...๐Ÿงต
