Hi, I’m Emre Yılmaz — an AWS Certified Professional, Cloud Architect, and DevOps Engineer, as well as the founder of Shikisoft and a Udemy Instructor Partner. With 20 years of professional experience, I’m passionate about helping both individual learners and enterprise teams master AWS and DevOps in a clear and practical way.

I’ve been AWS Certified since 2017 and achieved my first Professional-level certifications in 2018, maintaining them over the years (passed 3 exams for each Professional certification). I’ve grown alongside AWS and understand not only how to pass the exams, but also how to apply AWS effectively in real-world projects.

Over the years, I’ve worked with both startups and enterprises to design scalable, secure, and cost-efficient cloud solutions. I also hold a BS in Computer Engineering and an MS in Financial Engineering, which helps me bridge technical depth with business impact.

Beyond teaching, I founded Shikisoft, a company dedicated to helping organizations adopt AWS and DevOps best practices. I also share insights through my company blog, where I publish tutorials and lessons learned from real-world projects.

What I enjoy most is transforming complex AWS and DevOps concepts into clear, hands-on lessons that learners can immediately apply. My courses are designed to help you not just earn AWS certifications, but also gain the job-ready cloud skills that make a difference in your career.
