Community Builders contribute by creating technical content such as:

The program includes multiple categories such as:
- Containers
- Serverless
- DevTools
- Machine Learning

I was selected in the Containers category, which focuses on cloud-native technologies and container-based architectures.
My Journey
My journey into cloud and DevOps started during my college years when I began exploring technologies like:
- Linux
- Docker
- Kubernetes
- CI/CD
- Cloud platforms
Currently, I’m also working as a DevOps Engineer Intern, where I get to work with tools like Kubernetes, CI/CD pipelines, and cloud infrastructure.
Last year, I applied to the AWS Community Builders program but my application was rejected. Instead of getting discouraged, I focused on improving my skills and continuing to share my learning with the community.
This year, I applied again - and waking up to the acceptance email was an unforgettable moment.
