The CI/CD pipeline that breaks every Monday

The situation this course is for

Every week starts with the same problem: pipeline failures from flaky tests, dependency drift, or misconfigured stages. The team loses hours to triage, reruns fail unpredictably, and trust in automation erodes. You know the root cause is fixable, but no one has time to rebuild it the right way, so you keep patching. This course eliminates that cycle.

Who this is for

Mid-level software engineers in scaled engineering environments who own or contribute to CI/CD pipelines and are held accountable for build stability and deployment reliability.

Who this is not for

Engineers who don’t touch pipelines, managers looking for team-wide training, or teams using fully managed platforms with zero customization.

What you walk away with

  • Diagnose the root cause of any CI/CD failure in under 30 minutes
  • Fix flaky tests and unstable stages with proven patterns
  • Automate recovery steps to reduce manual toil by 70%
  • Document a pipeline health checklist used across Atlassian-scale teams
  • Prevent recurrence with monitoring and guardrails that stick

If nothing changes
Without addressing pipeline instability, your team will continue losing productive time to firefighting, eroding trust in automation and slowing down delivery velocity. As pressure mounts at Atlassian to deliver reliably at scale, unresolved pipeline issues become career-limiting technical debt.
