A hands-on 16-week program where you build, secure, deploy, monitor, and defend the same real-world application from four different engineering roles. Master cloud infrastructure, CI/CD, Kubernetes, application security, observability, AI-assisted DevSecOps, and incident response through live labs and release simulations.
Developer, Release Engineer, Security Engineer, and SRE โ you rotate through all four across the same PayCore application.
Go beyond isolated tools and learn how modern engineering teams actually build and release software. Develop hands-on experience across development, security, cloud, release engineering, and site reliability workflows.

Development, security, and operations can no longer work in isolation. Modern organizations need engineers who understand the entire software delivery lifecycle โ from source code and infrastructure to security gates, Kubernetes, observability, and production incidents.
The skills employers need:
This isn't a collection of disconnected tutorials. You work on the same PayCore application throughout the program and experience how development, security, release engineering, and SRE decisions affect each other.
"I know the tools." โ "I know how the entire system works."
Learn DevSecOps through practical engineering scenarios, live demonstrations, guided labs, and real release workflows โ not theory alone.
Senior Principal Platform Engineer
Senior Principal Platform Engineer with 15+ years in platform engineering, DevOps, and automation. He worked with Microsoft and has built systems for the U.S. Department of Defense, GEICO, JPMorgan Chase, and HP.
Connect on LinkedInWork on PayCore โ a realistic payments API โ throughout the entire program. Every phase builds on the previous one as you move between Developer, Release Engineer, Security Engineer, and SRE responsibilities. The program culminates in live release and incident simulations where technical decisions have real downstream consequences.
Learn how development, security, release engineering, and SRE responsibilities intersect in a modern software delivery lifecycle. Explore the PayCore architecture, Git workflows, pull requests, pipeline checks, security gates, canary deployments, and the decisions that determine whether software should ship.

DevSecOps Mastery is a 16-week live, instructor-led program that teaches development, security, cloud infrastructure, CI/CD, Kubernetes, observability, governance, and incident response as one connected engineering workflow.
The program runs for 16 weeks and includes 80+ hours of live instruction plus guided hands-on lab sessions.
No prior DevOps or Kubernetes experience is required. The curriculum starts with DevSecOps foundations before progressing into infrastructure, pipelines, containers, security, observability, and governance.
Yes. Each week combines instructor-led concepts with practical labs. Students continuously work with PayCore, a realistic payments API, throughout the program.
The program covers tools and technologies including Git, GitHub, Jenkins, GitLab CI, Terraform, AWS, CloudFormation, Vault, Docker, Kubernetes, Helm, SonarQube, Snyk, Trivy, Checkov, ModSecurity, Falco, Prometheus, Grafana, ELK, OPA, Rego, ChatGPT, Claude, and more.
Instead of learning DevOps, security, and SRE as isolated disciplines, students rotate between Developer, Release Engineer, Security Engineer, and SRE responsibilities. This helps you understand how decisions made in one role affect the entire release lifecycle.
PayCore is the realistic payments API used throughout the program. Students build its infrastructure, create CI/CD workflows, secure its application and containers, deploy it to Kubernetes, monitor it, and respond to simulated incidents.
The capstone combines the skills developed throughout the program. Students rotate through all four engineering roles while responding to two different scenarios: a vulnerable dependency that bypasses a security gate and a deployment that causes a major p99 latency increase.
Yes. The PayCore environment and final capstone are designed to produce portfolio-ready technical artifacts, including infrastructure definitions, CI/CD workflows, security policies, architecture documentation, monitoring dashboards, and incident-response work.
The curriculum develops skills relevant to roles such as Junior DevSecOps Engineer, DevOps Engineer, Cloud Security Engineer, Release Engineer, Site Reliability Engineer, Security Engineer, and Platform Engineer.
16 weeks. 9 phases. One payments application. Four rotating roles. Two live incidents. One portfolio-ready capstone. Build the skills to develop, secure, release, monitor, and defend modern software systems from end to end.
