I don't Apply to 'DevOps' Jobs Anymore

DevOps Vs SRE vs Platform Engineer vs Software Engineer is a hot debate, in this video I explain what that means to me.

You are absolutely right. The Sys admin in our department has more knowledge of programming than other programmers. But he is being paid 30-50% less salary than them. Now i tell all of my friends to avoid Sysadmins roles.

The algo suggested your nmap video, and I looked through your vids and watched this one also. Your thoughts very much line up with my own, my work title is SRE. It's not an SRE role in the slightest. We stood up a platform using Cloud Foundry deployed on to BOSH, which in turn is making use of on-prem vSphere clusters for deploying the VMs. Internally we have our automated deploys, IaC and observability tooling out the wazoo. (more in replies)

So when in our small company we have one product for multiple customers and we also setup customer infra in cloud like Azure for example for our app as IaC.
Still I'm in close contact with developer as we work together almost every day in the case of debugging or managing and improving logging system (logs are from app itself).
I also know the app configuration as I was programming a bit in Java + Spring so I'm fluent to debug some things by myself and also I'm the person who makes this magic called CI/CD with managing k8s clusters etc. but the stuff hosted on-premise like for example repo it is all not my job :D So I'm and SRE/PE/SWE or just a needed person to run the business? :D

Hi. Could you share what software/camera you use for recording these? Loving the quality!

[Babbili]

People who writes job descriptions like HRs and the technically unexperienced CTOs are the reason for this

From your explanation I would say I think I'm one of the few individuals at a large tech company that's hired to do devops that actually doesn't do really any ops, but more software dev/tooling to solve problems within the organization, I'd be interested in having a conversation about your experiences though, if you'd also be interested.
