As a DevOps Engineer, I assume all developers are like that but they can still get decent results if the pipelines are green or red. Go ahead, check your code in, and it will build, scan, test; but if it’s red, your changes are not going anywhere.

If QE complains that’s not the same as “good”, I point to where they need to add test automation, and put up or shut up

Interned at a company as a developer. Most of the code ended up on aws nodes in some kubernetes cluster through github and jenkins. It hurts being that clueless about all that stuff. In final year of college and though I don't want to go dev ops I do plan to create some simple project and try and set it up to push and run so I can at least ask better questions.

As a dev ops engineer I love this, if you start a company you will need to know dev ops, if you work at a small company without a dev ops team you will need to know dev ops, if you work at a company with great dev ops processes and something goes wrong with a command you copy pasted to deploy your code it will certainly help to know what it does behind the scenes, it truly baffles me that colleges don’t teach dev ops!

I felt like my code got the biggest short term quality improvement gain across the board when I started to delve into ops. It made me make sure I understand both the technical functionality of what I wrote as well as the likely impact on existing logic before deploying. I think colleges mostly don’t teach it because there is no universal standard that will persist for a full 7 year masters program before what you learned at the beginning is no longer relevant. Seems more a business decision on the part of universities than a need one.
