Seconded. Post also does not mention AWS.<p>Starting a government-focused startup, their FedRAMP certification is invaluable. No way we could go through that process (multiple years, tens-hundreds of thousands of dollars) and make an affordable product.<p>Author did make a good point about devs being problem solvers who want to do it themselves. A great sign of a truly senior engineer is focus on the outcomes and offloading the non-business-critical things.<p>(This isn&#x27;t to say DevOps isn&#x27;t important, but unless your business relies on innovative ops as a core piece of what it offers, don&#x27;t spend time on that.)
