Leverage IT/support skills for DevOps, SRE, and Infrastructure Engineering roles

Individuals with strong 'tech-adjacent' skills like Azure, AWS, Docker, Linux, Python, Bash, and PowerShell scripting, even if not in traditional 'software engineering' roles, are well-positioned for in-demand careers such as DevOps Engineer, Site Reliability Engineer (SRE), Production Engineer, or Infrastructure Engineer. These roles are critical for modern software development and often bridge the gap between development and operations. Leveraging these skills and proactively seeking opportunities, including widening the job search or internal transitions, can lead to software-focused careers.
