Frequently Asked Questions
How many spots are available?
I limit mentorship to 5 active students at a time to ensure quality. Spots fill up quickly.
What if I can't commit to 3 months?
The 3-month minimum ensures we have time for real progress. However, we can discuss flexible scheduling (bi-weekly instead of weekly) to fit your availability.
Do you offer refunds?
If after the first session you're not satisfied, I'll refund that session. After that, no refunds, but you can pause or reschedule sessions.
What timezone are you in?
UK timezone (GMT/BST), but I can accommodate evening/early morning sessions for other timezones.
Will this help me get a job?
I can't guarantee job offers, but I will help you build the skills, portfolio, and confidence to land DevOps roles. We'll also work on resumes, interviews, and job search strategies.
What makes you qualified to mentor?
I've scaled SaaS infrastructure at SciBite, saved £120k in cloud costs, and worked with Kubernetes, Terraform, and CI/CD in production. More importantly, I remember what it's like to be confused and overwhelmed—I'll meet you where you are.
