Overview
Worked on Microsoft Azure Cloud platform and dev. Jira story assignment, worked on sprints and was actively included in daily stand ups. At the end of the sprints I also participated in Backlog refinement sessions and new tech ‘Show and Tell’s.
Skills
Yes, I have built a lot of confidence in my technical skills. I had to read a lot of Microsoft documentation and understand/write and deploy Terraform pipelines (via YAML files). I have worked on PowerShell scripts for assigning RBAC, creating new cloud resources and SQL database migration. I have also worked with KQL queries on creating new Azure Monitor workbooks.
Responsibilities
I owned my tasks and made sure to keep myself busy. I was responsible for my projects but never felt pressure to deliver something urgently.
Support & Guidance
The team was great, they made sure to answer all of my questions in detail and explain everything as good as possible.
Culture
Everyone is genuinely friendly and nice.
Your Impressions

Yes
Be yourself, learn as much as you can and ask a lot of questions.
