Is it possible to make money using your Linux knowledge if you’re not a developer? I know I can become a professional devops or sysadmin if I take some courses and master advanced networking. But is there something I can do now as an average, moderately experienced linux user?
I started doing password resets for ISPs so developers could access their on-prem hardware. It’s been about 10 years and now I write bash and python all day. make about 130k a year and do about 2-3 hours of work a day.
Impressive, whats your job title? any tips on how to get that kind of gig?
Sr. System Engineer.
Learn linux, learn it well, and find a place where IT is the business, not a business with an IT department.
