Hey {{first name | there}}.
I'm giving away a KodeKloud Pro annual subscription, and because you're already subscribed, you're holding the one thing you need to win it, which is your personal referral link sitting further down this email.
The mechanics are simple enough that I'll keep this short: the first person to refer 15 engineers to join the Newsletter gets the full annual subscription.
And anyone who reaches 3 referrals unlocks a 30-minute 1-on-1 with me, wherever they finish on the leaderboard.

What's actually in it
KodeKloud is where a lot of DevOps and platform engineers go to learn real world skill, and the annual plan covers
CKA prep
CKAD labs
CKS Labs
60+ DevOps playgrounds
Real cluster access
Your link: {{ rp_refer_url }}
Copy and share this ☝🏾 link to others.
Your referrals so far: {{ rp_num_referrals }}

This closes on November 1st, and I'll share leaderboard updates in every email so you can see where you stand.
I am currently preparing for a couple of trips this Q4, and before I head to the airport, I wanted to share this REMINDER with you.
✅ACTION ITEMS FOR YOU
You probably already know 3 engineers who'd get value from this, which puts the 1-on-1 closer than it looks, and 15 tends to be a lot less than it sounds once your link lands in the right Slack channel or team group chat.
Your move.
Divine
P.s. Forwarding this email won't count toward your total, since the signup has to come through your link, so send the link itself to the engineer you're thinking of right now. Make a post about it anywhere on the internet.

AI can now write Terraform, deploy infrastructure, and follow runbooks. So what does that mean for cloud engineers building their careers?
The skills worth focusing on are shifting towards the work that requires judgment, context, and a solid understanding of how systems behave.
This video breaks down five cloud skills that appeared across multiple expert rankings, including one that showed up in all four. It also covers why each matters and how to start building it.
