DevOps engineers build and scale services in a cloud environment. They are similar to IT project managers and work with other IT specialists to cover various components of the infrastructure system. DevOps engineers will act as a liaison between the developers and the IT team. Organizations that have DevOps on their team deploy more reliable code more often and experience less frequent software failures.
A Senior DevOps Engineer, will have over 5 years of experience and will understand the Software Development Lifecycle in and out. An ideal candidate should be able to use tools such as Jenkins, Selenium, Chef, or Ansible among others. DevOps must have well developed communication skills in order to be efficient in managing the code release along with the developers and the IT staff.
A Middle DevOps Engineer has around 2 years of experience and has a few projects completed with no supervision. An ideal candidate should have a good knowledge of the development cycle, have proven experience in automating workloads across multiple platforms.
If a Junior DevOps Engineer is among your candidates, he will have limited knowledge of programming languages and deploymenet tools. A strong candidate should have basic experience in Git and Git workflows.
The DevOps Engineer is an important IT team member because they bridge the gap between software development teams and IT operations. DevOps work with internal customers like QC personnel, software and application developers, project managers and project stakeholders usually from within the same organization. They rarely work with external customers or end-users, but keep a “customer first” mindset to satisfy the needs of their internal clients.
The DevOps Engineer is a customer-service oriented, team player who can emerge from a number of different work and educational backgrounds, but through their experience has developed the right skillset to move into DevOps.
