Ask HN: Career Value of DevOps vs. Software Engineer Title
3 by el_benhameen | 3 comments on Hacker News.
I’m a senior software engineer and have been offered a senior devops role. I may be able to choose whether the title is “devops” or “software” engineer as the role isn’t super well-defined and involves both types of engineering. I’m wondering if one of these is preferable in terms of career/salary progression and the ability to find other roles easily. I know that “devops” can mean a lot of different things and that I should focus on what I’m good at and enjoy—-those are good points, but right now I’m just curious about others’ opinions on the relative value of the titles.
