Full Stack Java
+ AI Agents

Train as an AI-Native Java engineer. Master Core & Advanced Java, Spring Boot microservices, and a modern React + TypeScript front end — then ship the AI agents that pair-program with you, write tests, and run inside your services. 3 months. One production capstone. A job offer, not a certificate.

What you leave with

Four things every Full Stack Java grad walks away with.

Most programs hand you a certificate and a Zoom recording. Ours hands you a running system, a portfolio, and an interview.

01
Full-stack fluency
Java + Spring Boot on the back end, React + TypeScript on the front — wired together with real REST APIs.
02
A shipped capstone
A live microservices app on AWS, Dockerized, with a React UI and CI/CD running on every push.
03
Verifiable credential
2026 Agent-Ready rubric, graded 1–5 with a public verification URL recruiters can check.
04
Direct placement pipeline
GitHub + LinkedIn rewrite, resume rebuild, and warm intros to our 1,000+ hiring partners.
12 weeks, four phases

The path from "can write a for-loop" to ships full-stack Java apps.

Weeks 1–3 build the base. Weeks 4–7 ship the front end & React. Weeks 8–10 layer Spring Boot & microservices. Weeks 11–12 are the capstone.

  • Semantic HTML & modern CSS layouts
  • JavaScript ES6+, async, fetch, DOM
  • TypeScript: types, generics, interfaces

Deploy a full-stack Java app into a real partner org.

Pick a real partner problem — an LMS, an HRMS module, a CRM workflow. Ship a complete Spring Boot + React solution backed by an AI assistant. Deploy to AWS, instrument it, and walk out with a production artifact, a reference, and often, an offer letter.

Your instructor

Taught by the engineer who ran your dream job's pipelines.

Not a career trainer. A practitioner who still ships code.

RATING

Ahmed came up through ops at an Indian unicorn before leading cloud platform teams across three continents. He's built CI/CD pipelines for a retail chain with 1,200 stores, migrated a bank's monoliths to Kubernetes, and — most recently — shipped the first LangGraph-based AI-Ops agent into production at a Fortune-500 insurer.

His cohorts get two things other programs don't give you: a real engineer who still ships code, and a curriculum rewritten every quarter to match what hiring managers actually ask about.

FAQ

Questions we actually get — answered honestly.

If the answer you need isn't here, book a 20-minute advisor call. No-slides, no-pitch — just your questions.

No. About 40% of our DevOps cohort comes from non-CS backgrounds — mechanical, electrical, commerce. The first three weeks are foundations on purpose. What you do need: comfort with a terminal and ~15 hours/week for three months.
Plan for 12–15 hours: 2 live classes × 2 hours, 1 lab × 3 hours, and roughly 5 hours of asynchronous project work. Weekends are optional office hours with the TA team.
Yes. Every student gets a dedicated placement advisor from week 8 onwards — not a helpdesk. They review your resume, redo your LinkedIn, mock-interview you, and make direct warm introductions to our 1,000+ hiring partners. We track individual outcomes, not cohort averages.
Full refund within 7 days of cohort start, no questions. Pro-rata refund through week 4 if the program isn't working for you. We'd rather refund than have an unhappy alum.
You actually build. Modules 2.12 and all of Section 6 are hands-on — you'll ship a Cursor-assisted Terraform setup, a LangGraph workflow, a RAG pipeline, and your capstone AI-Ops agent. Nothing in the AI track is theory-only.
You get the Agent-Ready 2026 credential, graded on a 1–5 band with a public verification URL. It's co-branded with our partner ecosystem (Salesforce Partner + ServiceNow), and it names the specific capstone artifact you deployed. Recruiters can verify in 10 seconds.
All three. On-campus at our Hyderabad flagship; online cohorts on IST and PST; weekend cohorts for working professionals. Every format ships the same three projects and the same capstone.
We'd rather pause your cohort than push you through. You can freeze your seat for up to 90 days and rejoin the next cohort without paying again. TAs run catch-up sessions every Saturday for anyone more than one week behind.

Cohort 015 starts 12 May 2026.
48 seats. 11 already claimed.

Book a 20-minute advisor call. We'll walk through the curriculum, match it to your current role, and show you two real capstones from cohort 014.
