Certified. Still not hired.

01 — The premise

We marked up the job posting first. The course came second.

A composite of mid-level Azure listings, treated as a specification. The two lines circled are where self-taught candidates fail the screen. They get nine classes and a whole phase.

Cloud Engineer (Azure)

Mid-size enterprise · Hybrid · $110–135K
Azure core services: compute, networking, storage, identityClasses 1–16
Infrastructure as Code, Terraform or BicepClasses 20–21

The circled ones get asked about in the second interview.

02 — The path

Five phases. Each one ends in something you built.

03 — The method

Don’t read about it. Sit thirty seconds of it.

One unedited drill from Class One. Pick an answer. The marking talks you through it.

Class 01 · Drill 04Spot the error

A junior engineer briefed leadership before a migration. One line is wrong. Which?

MEMORANDUM — Cloud migration, executive summary

1.  Cloud shifts our spend from CapEx to OpEx.
2.  Capacity scales automatically for seasonal traffic spikes.
3.  Once we migrate, the provider secures our data and user accounts.
4.  Pay-per-use means idle capacity stops costing full price.
Marked, with reasoning

Line three. Under the shared responsibility model your data and your identities never transfer to the provider. Microsoft secures the cloud. You secure what you put in it. Most cloud breaches are a customer’s open storage account, not a compromised provider.

The full class is free

04 — The proof

Three capstones. One certificate anyone can verify.

Each capstone is a public repository, a rubric, and the questions an interviewer will ask about it. Finish all 42 classes and the certificate carries an ID checkable against a public registry.

Plate I

Enterprise Web Platform

Three tiers, delivered entirely through pipelines, with an approval gate and a budget watching the bill.

Open the plate Plate II

Miniature Landing Zone

Governance before workload. Policies that deny, hub-and-spoke networking, access written as code.

Open the plate Plate III

The AI Workload

An assistant on Azure OpenAI behind a private endpoint, shipped by the same pipeline as everything else.

The certificate

Registry ID sample-adam-eve. Verified against a public list, so it can’t be faked.

05 — Who teaches it
Captain O, founder and instructor of the CAMPUX Cloud Engineering Bootcamp

I run this in production. Now I’m handing it to you.

Captain O. Senior Azure Cloud & DevSecOps engineer, nine years in enterprise IT, six of them entirely on Azure. Trained first as a helicopter pilot, which is where the checklist habit comes from.

I kept meeting people who passed the certs and still got told to come back with experience. So I wrote down the exact work I do in production and gave it away.

The labs are public on GitHub

Also from CAMPUX

The same idea, pointed at Microsoft AI.

Ten free projects on Microsoft Foundry and Azure AI. You build an agent, make it call a real tool, watch it fail in the specific ways agents fail, and come away able to explain the trade-offs to somebody who is paying for it.

Every project was built and broken in a real subscription before it was written up, so the pages carry the error text we actually got and the numbers we actually measured, not a tutorial’s happy path. Free, and there is nothing to sign up for.
