summary
DevOps Institute presents survey data from 1,600 respondents worldwide showing that automation process and soft skills equal importance for CI/CD; 61% of respondents hold hiring-capable roles and 37% are actively hiring. Functional priorities put IT operations/infrastructure and security at the top, testing and TDD rise as must-have developer skills, and systems thinking and flow trump specific frameworks. Amazon’s $700M upskilling pledge to 2025 is cited, and a 48‑page free report plus an open survey and virtual skill day offer concrete upskilling resources.
