DevOps engineers are responsible for introducing tools, processes, and methodologies to balance needs throughout the software development life cycle (SDLC).
While many DevOps engineers may be available for hire, finding the right one for your company can be challenging. It's challenging if you're unfamiliar with DevOps concepts and terminologies.
This article discusses DevOps development, what DevOps engineers do, their salaries, and how to write a compelling job description and ask the right interview questions to attract and hire top DevOps engineers. It also covers how Revelo can match you with suitable DevOps engineers.
DevOps development involves introducing DevOps tools, methodologies, and processes to a software development and IT company.
A combination of software development (dev) and operations (ops), DevOps is a software engineering and IT methodology that integrates and automates the work of IT operations and software development to shorten and improve the SDLC. It builds on top of Lean, Agile, and systems theory and focuses on rapid delivery and incremental software development. Success relies on collaboration, the developers' ability to hold each other accountable, joint responsibility for product outcomes, and empathy.
DevOps can be used for a wide range of IT projects, including:
