Let’s start by explaining what the DevOps” methodology consists of. This methodology seeks to bring development and operations teams closer together, optimizing processes throughout the software development lifecycle, from coding to maintenance. For this reason, many companies are looking for a DevOps expert profile: a professional with skills and knowledge in a wide range of topics, from software development to infrastructure operations. Currently, there is no official training to become a DevOps engineer, so here are some of the skills and knowledge that we believe this profile should have:

In conclusion, a DevOps profile can be a developer who has entered the world of system administration, gaining experience in operating system management, networking, software provisioning and configuration, etc.; or it can be a sysadmin who has entered the world of development, knowing at least a couple of programming languages and the requirements to make the software work. As you can see, the DevOps engineer profile is very versatile.  At Geko, we consider a good DevOps has to be someone who has knowledge of both worlds, regardless of their background.
