    Yes, I do. I’m a devops engineer and even “coding camp devs” have problems understanding what I do for a living.

      I think most devs even only have worked in software companies that sell software where devops isn’t as critical and complex since there’s not “production” environments. When you work for a company who makes software for themselves and/or hosts software from other companies themselves, devops is a much bigger deal. Even moreso if it’s a heavily regulated industry like healthcare. Most other companies don’t spend much on devops or even often make the developers do that work themselves.
