DevOps is the combination of two practices: development and operations. A DevOps professional is therefore an expert who integrates IT operations with software management and delivery. He ensures that the DevOps strategy is well implemented.

Upon closer inspection, DevOps engineers can take on many different roles.

#1 Software Developer – Software development is key to DevOps engineering and includes unit testing, deployment, monitoring and reporting.

#2 Automation Expert – Also known as an automation architect, this is where a DevOps engineer is tasked with using tools that automate the development, testing, and integration of software deployments/upgrades. Automation experts analyze, design, and implement continuous deployment strategies.

#3 Release Manager – Release Managers or DevOps Managers work to coordinate and manage a product from the initial stages to the final release. They are responsible for end-to-end delivery.

#4 Security Officer – DevOps organizations employ security officers who work with developers, architects, and DevOps managers to build security into their products early on, rather than at the end.
