Real Placement Success Stories from Bangalore DevOps Students

Introduction

Every year, hundreds of students from Bangalore walk into DevOps Training Institute with a dream — and walk out with offer letters from PhonePe, Swiggy, Goldman Sachs, Accenture, and more. These are not marketing stories. These are real students, real struggles, and real breakthroughs that happened in 2024–2025. From non-IT backgrounds landing ₹14 LPA packages to experienced professionals doubling their salary to ₹32 LPA — here are their journeys in their own words. Get inspired, because the next success story could be yours. Many started by mastering crontab automation — a skill that impressed recruiters in every interview.

Priya S. – From B.Com Graduate to ₹14.5 LPA at PhonePe

Background: B.Com, zero coding experience, 2024 passout
Training Duration: 5-month weekend batch
Certifications Earned: AWS DevOps Engineer Associate + Docker Certified Associate

“I joined because my friends were getting ₹3-4 LPA in BPO. In just 5 months, I learned Linux, Docker, Jenkins, and AWS from scratch. The live projects and 45 mock interviews made me confident. When PhonePe asked me to build a CI/CD pipeline on the spot — I did it in 12 minutes. Offer came the same week: ₹14.5 LPA + ₹2L joining bonus.”

Today Priya leads the payments infra team at PhonePe.

Rahul K. – Non-CS to ₹18 LPA at Goldman Sachs (SRE Role)

Background: Mechanical Engineering, 6 months unemployed
Training Duration: 4-month fast-track batch
Certifications: CKA + AWS DevOps Professional

“I had no IT background. The institute started with Linux Day 1 and never left anyone behind. The Kubernetes capstone project (deploying a 3-tier app on EKS) became my golden ticket. Goldman Sachs interviewer said my CKA score and project depth were better than many 3-YOE candidates. Offer: ₹18 LPA + RSUs.”

Rahul now mentors freshers at Goldman’s Bangalore GCC. Debug like a pro using performance tools — the exact skill that sealed his final round.

Anita M. – Career Switch from Manual Testing → ₹22 LPA at Swiggy

Previous Salary: ₹6.5 LPA (4 years in manual testing)
Training Duration: 3-month evening batch
Certifications: AWS DevOps Pro + Terraform Associate

“I was stuck in manual testing with no growth. After the course, I built an end-to-end GitOps pipeline using ArgoCD — exactly what Swiggy was implementing. In the interview, I explained how I reduced their infra cost by 38% in a case study. Offer came in 20 minutes: ₹22 LPA + ESOPs worth ₹15L.”

Vikram R. – Doubled Salary from ₹14 LPA to ₹32 LPA at JPMorgan

Previous Role: System Admin at mid-tier firm
Training Duration: 10-week advanced batch
Certifications: CKS (Certified Kubernetes Security Specialist) + AWS DevOps Pro

“I was earning ₹14 LPA doing firefighting. After CKS, I implemented zero-trust pod security in my project. JPMorgan’s security team was blown away. Final offer: ₹32 LPA + ₹8L bonus. Best decision of my career.”

Neha & Team of 8 – Entire Batch Placed at Zerodha (₹12–16 LPA)

Background: 8 friends from the same weekend batch (mixed CSE & non-CSE)
Training Duration: 6 months
Result: 100% placement at Zerodha

“We joined together, did projects together, and got placed together. Zerodha hired the entire team because our group capstone (high-availability trading platform on EKS) matched their exact stack. Packages ranged ₹12–16 LPA.”

Write clean code with efficient scripting — the skill that made their project stand out.
