Each episode, your host Brian Teller walks through the latest outages, releases, tools, and incident writeups, then translates them into “here’s what this means for your systems” instead of just reading headlines. Expect a couple of main stories with context, a quick hit of tools or releases worth bookmarking, and the occasional segment on on-call, burnout, or team culture. This isn’t a certification prep show or a lab walkthrough. It’s aimed at people who are already working in the space and want to stay sharp without scrolling status pages, cloud updates, and blogs all week. You’ll hear about things like cloud provider incidents, Kubernetes and platform trends, Terraform and infrastructure changes, and real postmortems that are actually worth your time. Most episodes are 15–30 minutes, so you can catch up on the way to work or between meetings. Every now and then there will be a “special” focused on a big outage or a specific theme, but the default format is simple: what happened, why it matters, and what you might want to do about it in your own en…","last_synced_at":"2026-07-19T00:20:39.423055+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/ship-it-weekly-devops-sre-platform-and-cloud-engineering-news-7591275"},"episode":{"title":"Ship It Conversations: Yvonne Young on Linux Foundations, Mentorship, and Getting Job Ready in Cloud","slug":"ship-it-conversations-yvonne-young-on-linux-foundations-mentorship-and-getting-job-ready-in-cloud","published_at":"2026-03-09T09:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/ship-it-weekly-devops-sre-platform-and-cloud-engineering-news-7591275/ship-it-conversations-yvonne-young-on-linux-foundations-mentorship-and-getting-job-ready-in-cloud","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/ship-it-weekly-devops-sre-platform-and-cloud-engineering-news-7591275","url":"https://rss.com/podcasts/ship-it-weekly/2611253","audio_url":"https://content.rss.com/episodes/356364/2611253/ship-it-weekly/2026_03_09_01_45_28_be693e8a-1ba1-4051-a757-d512be2e2be0.mp3","summary":"This is a guest conversation episode of Ship It Weekly (separate from the weekly news recaps). In this Ship It: Conversations episode I talk with Yvonne Young , a cloud and Linux mentor active in the CloudWhistler community. We talk about the real path into cloud and DevOps, why Linux still matters as a foundation, what “job ready” actually means, and why focus, consistency, and business thinking matter more than chasing every new tool. Highlights Linux fundamentals still matter because so much of cloud and infra work sits on top of Linux What “job ready” really means: prepare for both technical and behavioral interviews, know the basics, and show how you learn when you don’t know something Why so many juniors stall out by trying to learn everything instead of picking a direction Why daily reps beat cramming: short, consistent practice keeps skills fresh better than marathon study sessions How Yvonne thinks about certifications, including why hands-on certs like RHCSA stand out Hands-on practice ideas: break things on purpose, troubleshoot, fix services, inspect ports, and use the help files Why tools matter less than the business problem they solve Using Vault as an example of solving real issues like secret sprawl, rotation, and centralized access How to think about cloud learning: pick one provider, learn the concepts, and map your path to the kinds of companies you want to work for Why mentorship and community matter, especially for juniors trying not to waste time or head in the wrong direction What seniors can do better: better onboarding, real availability, and giving juniors an actual lifeline when they get stuck Yvonne’s links LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/yvonne-young Stuff mentioned Ali Sohail on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alisohailit/ Tec…","meta_description":"This is a guest conversation episode of Ship It Weekly (separate from the weekly news recaps).
