A topic I'm seeing debated is in the area of finding DevOps work or staffing those roles. Should "DevOps roles" be a specialty to be hired for, or just additional responsibilities for an existing dev or engineer to take on as-needed?

I think, it would depend on factors like team size, skill and complexity of projects. Implementing a highly secure and complex infra for a large scale project, you'd definitely want a specialist to work on all the details of it while collaborating with the Devs and other stakeholders. Working on a project which can mostly be handled and debugged by the devs and you have dev skilled in that area, surely don't need a specialist.

I have been working in SEA region last 4 years. I feel burned out. I have 10yoe, I have try to move to other country but I pretty much suck in LeetCode.

Should I quit to my current manager(5th so far) or wait after mid year performance review, when a new boss will take over my team? I'm thinking on giving them 2 months notice period. By contract is 1.

Thanks
