Learn From Working Engineers

Every batch at Shifttotech Academy is taught by an engineer who ships for a living — not a full-time trainer reading from slides. Batches are capped at 10 so the person teaching the class is the person reviewing your code.

Firoz Ahmed

Senior AWS DevOps Engineer

TCS (Fortune 500) · 8+ Years Experience

Teaches the DevOps & Cloud track

A working DevOps engineer, not a full-time trainer. Firoz spends his days hands-on with multi-region AWS infrastructure — 38+ Java microservices on EKS, managed with Terraform, ArgoCD and Prometheus in production.

That matters because every concept in the course comes from a system that is actually running, with real failures, real cost pressure and real on-call. He leads the DevOps and Cloud track, and personally reviews student code in the small weekend batches.

Teaches the AI & Generative AI track

Sayeed has spent 4+ years building intelligent systems with Python, TensorFlow, PyTorch and advanced deep learning. His focus is NLP, computer vision and generative AI — the stack companies are actually hiring for in 2026.

He leads the AI and Generative AI track, teaching the parts that matter in production: retrieval, evaluation, fine-tuning and deployment, not just model theory. Classes are capped at 10 so he can review each student’s projects directly.

Why we teach in batches of 10

Code review doesn’t scale past about twenty students. In a batch of 10, the instructor sees your screen, catches mistakes in real time, and reviews the projects you’ll actually show in interviews. That’s the whole reason the format exists. See how it works on the DevOps and AI course pages, or book a free demo class.
