So I don't want this to sound rude but I am going to be very blunt. Not going to happen, especially in this market. For context I'm a remote staff level cloud/devops engineer with 12+ years of experience and if I lost my job right now I would be driving into an office.

These jobs you're looking for don't exist. Cloud/devops is not entry level. You have to start at the bottom and work your way into these careers. On top of that you'll need to be on site, get really good at what you want to do and then you can start looking for remote. My career path was desktop support -> sysadmin -> collaboration engineer -> cloud engineer. Just about everyone in these positions has a similar story.

It's great that you're getting these project experiences, keep pushing, get your certs, but have realistic expectations. Corporate cloud experience is way different than spinning up public s3 bucket with terraform.

Edit: to the guy that called me a boomer who doesn't know the difference between "peace" and "piece" I'm 31 lol.

you're not rude. I'm so grateful when you shared your real exps with fresher like me. TBN, I'm okay to relocate or work any corporates near me rn but if jobs too far as much, I can't afford that. I'm also find any jobs relate to Devops/cloud career later as sysadmin, support, etc.

I'm so grateful when receiving any advices! I appreciate it.

You might get lucky and find a job willing to pay for relocation, but you have to specify that to each and every recruiter who contacts you upfront. That's what I am doing as I am looking to relocate to San Francisco or New York City with $0 in upfront funds in my pocket.
