πŸš€ Starting My DevOps + QA Automation Journey

Hey Devs!
I'm kicking off a 30-day career-building challenge to level up my skills in:

🐍 Python automation

πŸ§ͺ Pytest + Selenium testing

🐧 Linux/Bash scripting

🐳 Docker + CI/CD (GitHub Actions)

☁️ AWS + Terraform basics

πŸ“Š SQL + API testing

🎯 Why This Challenge?
After 1.6 years as a Junior Software Engineer, followed by a career gap, I’m rebuilding momentum and aiming for:

βœ… QA Automation & DevOps roles

βœ… Real-world projects for GitHub

πŸ”¨ What I’ll Be Building
Login automation (Selenium + Pytest)

REST API testing suite (requests + Pytest)

Flask app deployed to AWS EC2 (Docker + GitHub Actions)

File organizers, CLI tools, and mini automation scripts

πŸ’¬ I’ll be posting weekly progress and projects β€” follow along!

Let’s connect and grow together πŸš€
