Blog post from Spacelift
DevOps is a rapidly growing field with an average salary of $105,000 to $114,000 and over 20% job growth per decade. To become a DevOps engineer, one needs a passion for learning, knowledge, and logic, as well as skills in intermediate to advanced Linux and networking, infrastructure automation, SDLC, CI/CD pipelines, container technology, and observability technology. A bachelor's degree in software development or IT is beneficial but not always necessary. Some key tools and platforms for DevOps include Terraform, Git, Docker, Jenkins, ECS, ELK Stack, AWS, Google Cloud, and Spacelift.
