The PeopleCert DevOps Engineer certification has been designed to address the needs of the professionals who want to enable their organisation to build, test, and release software in a rapid, frequent, and reliable way.

The DevOps Engineer role

A DevOps Engineer combines aspects of a technical and an IT operations role. DevOps Engineers manage the output of software development and introduce processes, tools, and methodologies to balance needs and requirements throughout the entire deployment pipeline.

While some engineers might have a coding background in different languages and know how to find problems and build solutions, this is not the primary role of a DevOps engineer. More senior engineers are likely to be more involved in the project management and planning side of development.
