					<description><![CDATA[DevOps engineers need a rare blend of soft and hard skills — from cross-team communication and toolchain mastery to test automation and security. Here is a practical breakdown of what it takes to succeed.]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p class="wp-block-paragraph">When an organisation adopts a DevOps methodology, engineers find themselves at the centre of significant cultural and technical change. The role demands more than writing good code — it requires orchestrating people, processes and tools across the entire software delivery lifecycle. Below is a practical breakdown of the core skills every DevOps engineer needs to thrive.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What Skills Does a DevOps Engineer Need?</h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The top priority in DevOps is to deliver high-value features frequently through cross-team collaboration. Achieving that goal requires a mix of interpersonal (&#8220;soft&#8221;) skills and technical (&#8220;hard&#8221;) skills. Whether you are already working in DevOps or preparing to move into the role, mapping your existing strengths against this framework is a useful starting point.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">1. Communication and Collaboration</h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">DevOps dissolves the traditional wall between development and operations by bringing small teams with different objectives together around a shared goal: fast, reliable releases. That model only works when communication flows freely.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">A strong DevOps engineer communicates regularly with internal stakeholders — product managers, architects, QA leads — to stay aligned on roadmaps, blocking issues and release objectives. They also need to communicate clearly with customers when support issues arise.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Collaboration goes beyond being a good teammate. Effective DevOps engineers mentor colleagues on coding standards, tool selection and delivery best practices, and actively support the team throughout sprints and iterations.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">2. Mastery of the DevOps Toolchain</h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">A DevOps engineer must understand how a diverse set of tools integrates into a coherent delivery pipeline. Knowing what each tool does — and how it interacts with everything else — is as important as knowing how to configure it. The key categories include:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>Version control</strong> — tracking changes to code and configuration (e.g., Git)</li>
<li><strong>Continuous Integration (CI) servers</strong> — automating build and test on every commit (e.g., Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI)</li>
<li><strong>Configuration management</strong> — maintaining consistent system state (e.g., Ansible, Chef, Puppet)</li>
<li><strong>Deployment automation</strong> — reliably promoting artefacts through environments</li>
<li><strong>Containers</strong> — packaging applications for portability and consistency (e.g., Docker)</li>
<li><strong>Infrastructure orchestration</strong> — managing containerised workloads at scale (e.g., Kubernetes)</li>
<li><strong>Monitoring and analytics</strong> — observing system health and user behaviour in production</li>
<li><strong>Testing and cloud quality tools</strong> — validating behaviour at every stage of the pipeline</li>
<li><strong>Network protocols</strong> — understanding how services communicate across environments</li>
</ul>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Your responsibility is to ensure these tools work together reliably in both pre-production and production stages. Knowing which tool depends on which, and in what order they fire, is essential for a stable delivery chain.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">3. Programming Skills and Mature Coding Standards</h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">DevOps engineers are not expected to be language specialists, but they do need to be comfortable working across multiple programming and scripting languages. Common examples include Python, Ruby, Bash, Java, JavaScript and PHP — the exact mix will depend on your organisation&#8217;s stack.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">These skills serve two purposes:</p>



<ol class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>Automating the pipeline</strong> — writing scripts and tools that eliminate manual handoffs between stages.</li>
<li><strong>Integration quality</strong> — ensuring your code integrates cleanly with code produced by other teams, often in different environments and languages.</li>
</ol>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Test automation is a particularly important coding skill for DevOps engineers. Since CI/CD pipelines depend on automated tests to gate every build, the ability to write, maintain and debug test code in multiple languages is a real differentiator. Managing complex pipeline configurations in tools such as Jenkins requires discipline and a thorough end-to-end understanding of how changes propagate through the system.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">4. Syncing with QA Teams</h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">DevOps engineers do not work in isolation from quality assurance. To hit sprint goals and release dates consistently, they need continuous visibility into QA activities. Specifically, a DevOps engineer should:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Understand what testing activities are happening and when</li>
<li>Know the history of test results across the CI/CD cycle</li>
<li>Be familiar with the frameworks and environments that QA teams own</li>
</ul>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">With that knowledge, a DevOps engineer can identify which existing test automation frameworks can be reused for other tasks — such as reproducing production issues or validating specific environments — rather than rebuilding work from scratch.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Importantly, adopting DevOps does not mean automating everything. Manual testing continues to play a vital role even in fast-moving CI/CD environments. Test automation excels at validating the &#8220;happy path&#8221; repeatedly and reliably, but exploratory testing is necessary for:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Discovering the alternative paths that real users take</li>
<li>Testing scenarios that are too complex or too context-dependent to automate effectively</li>
<li>Covering cases where the return on automation investment does not justify the effort</li>
</ul>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">DevOps engineers who find the right balance between automated and manual testing — and who adjust that balance as the system evolves — put their products in the strongest position for continuous, reliable delivery.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">5. Non-Functional Skills: Security, Monitoring and Infrastructure as Code</h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Beyond the functional pipeline, DevOps engineers need competency in several non-functional areas:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>Monitoring and observability</strong> — tracking application performance, error rates and infrastructure health in production, and acting on that data.</li>
<li><strong>Infrastructure as Code (IaC)</strong> — using tools such as Terraform or AWS CloudFormation to define and manage infrastructure programmatically, enabling reproducibility and automation.</li>
<li><strong>Cloud administration</strong> — understanding the platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP or others) on which services run.</li>
<li><strong>Security (DevSecOps)</strong> — integrating security practices directly into the pipeline. Because DevOps ships code frequently in small increments, security checks must be continuous rather than a gate at the end of a release cycle. DevOps engineers should take an active role in this, not treat security as someone else&#8217;s concern.</li>
</ul>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In larger teams, individual engineers may specialise in one or more of these areas. Even so, every DevOps engineer should have enough familiarity across all of them to collaborate effectively with specialists and to recognise when something is wrong.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">6. Technical Support and Operational Ownership</h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">A DevOps engineer is not just a pipeline builder — they own and operate the tools and environments the entire team depends on, and sometimes customer-facing capabilities too. That ownership comes with operational responsibilities:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>Real-time monitoring</strong> — maintaining visibility into system state at all times</li>
<li><strong>Alerting</strong> — ensuring that meaningful alerts fire when something degrades or fails, and that the right people are notified</li>
<li><strong>Incident response</strong> — troubleshooting and resolving issues quickly, whether through online support, runbooks or direct technical intervention</li>
</ul>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Keeping production systems available around the clock is a core operational expectation for most organisations running modern software. DevOps engineers are central to meeting that expectation.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Bottom Line</h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">DevOps engineering is not a single discipline — it is a combination of communication, toolchain knowledge, programming, testing awareness, security sensibility and operational discipline. The engineers who thrive in this role are those who can hold the whole delivery system together while helping the people around them move faster and more confidently.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">As organisations mature their DevOps practices, the role continues to expand — particularly into security, observability and platform engineering. Starting with the skills outlined here gives you a strong, durable foundation for that growth.</p>

<p class="cf-tweet-this cf-tt-target cf-tt-enabled cf-tt-abutted cf-tt-abutted-top cf-tt-element-attached-bottom cf-tt-element-attached-center cf-tt-target-attached-top cf-tt-target-attached-center">An age-old problem in DevOps is how to establish measurable DevOps ROI.</p>
<p>DevOps solution provider, Puppet, has released its new product, Insights, which provides data and analysis from DevOps processes that can be used to help companies understand the business value of DevOps.</p>
<p>Measuring things such as sales pipeline velocity, win rates, and deal size are tried and tested methods business leaders use to tell them what’s going on in their sales cycle.</p>
<p class="cf-tweet-this cf-tt-target cf-tt-enabled cf-tt-out-of-bounds cf-tt-out-of-bounds-top cf-tt-element-attached-top cf-tt-element-attached-center cf-tt-target-attached-bottom cf-tt-target-attached-center">Tools, such as Salesforce, make this kind of measurement easy, and the visual representations and reports that can be produced are used as the basis for formulating financial projections and business plans. The same cannot be said for DevOps, however.</p>
<p>Unlike traditional business measurements, DevOps has not had any reliable way to measure success or identify areas for improvement.</p>
<p>While DevOps is all about shortening software development lifecycles and helping teams deliver new features, fixes, and updates in time to support wider business objectives, measuring this holistically is difficult.</p>
<p>There’s no doubt that DevOps ROI is highly valued because organisations continue to invest in it, but that’s not enough.</p>
<p>It’s important for DevOps to be accurately measured, not only so improvements can be implemented, but because once a true business value is known, a better case can be made for more budget or resources, if these are needed.</p>
<p>Without an accurate way to measure what their DevOps teams do, technology leaders have been, to some extent, in the dark about software delivery processes and how to identify and troubleshoot problem areas.</p>
<p>They can’t ask “how fast are we moving?” or “why does that process take so long”, “what’s the quality of the software we develop?” or “where can improvements be made?”</p>
<p>Mark Trumpbour, VP of DevOps, ServiceChannel, agrees: “A comprehensive view of how we deliver software, as an entire organisation, is critical to the success of our business. Having full visibility of the value we deliver through software, and the insights needed to know what to optimise next will give us the speed we need to delight our customers and lead our industry.”</p>
<p>Now Puppet says it has an answer to this lack of visibility. Its recently launched Puppet Insights solution is designed to enable DevOps processes and performance to be measured just like other areas of a business, something that’s never been done before.</p>
<p>For the first time, says Puppet, DevOps metrics can be recorded, aggregated, measured and analysed before being presented as detailed reports, or on a dashboard, giving team leaders a bird’s eye view across the whole toolchain.</p>
<p>Based on these insights, leaders should be able to optimise software delivery across their entire organisation and focus on how to improve the velocity, quality, and the impact of their software development delivery cycles.</p>
<p>Teams can even import and correlate data from across the toolchain and pull best practices data from thousands of customers to help benchmark success.</p>
<p>Alex Bilmes, senior director of product at Puppet, says: “Puppet Insights helps measure the impact of DevOps investments so that success can be benchmarked and the true value of DevOps demonstrated.”</p>
