What problem does it solve? Teams struggle to ship software reliably when builds, deployments, and infrastructure provisioning are manual and inconsistent. This Skill provides DevOps expertise to automate delivery pipelines, codify infrastructure, and keep environments observable and secure. ## Core Features & Use Cases - CI/CD Pipeline Design: Build automated build, test, and deployment workflows with GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, or CircleCI. - Infrastructure as Code: Provision and version infrastructure using Terraform, Pulumi, or CloudFormation across AWS, GCP, and Azure. - Container Orchestration: Configure Docker containers and Kubernetes, ECS, or Docker Swarm clusters for staging and production. - Monitoring & Security: Set up Prometheus, Grafana, ELK, or Datadog observability and manage secrets with Vault or SOPS. - Use Case: A team migrating a monolith to containers asks for a GitHub Actions pipeline that builds Docker images, deploys to Kubernetes via Helm, and wires Prometheus alerting. ## Quick Start Ask the DevOps engineer to design a GitHub Actions CI/CD pipeline that builds a Docker image and deploys it to a Kubernetes cluster managed with Terraform.
