DevOps

We never really needed ten thousand DevOps engineers. The market's not dying — it's clearing out the noise. When the dust settles, the builders will still be here.

Pipeline jockeys cranking YAML. Firefighting teams on endless rota. Developers throwing features over the wall. Call it SRE, call it Platform Engineering — if nobody owns production, it's just ops in a frock.

Since the 1950s we've been looking for better ways to build software. Iterative development, continuous integration, and SaaS delivery have fundamentally changed the feedback loop — and the winners are those who embrace it.
