Seven years ago when I was starting my current job that is what I was doing; which was all of it. From taking design's PSDs to turn them into markup, to programming the back end, and occasionally traveling to the data center to setup servers and networking. The "Full Stack developer plus SysOps" of trades.
My job was not labeled as front end, back end, DevOps, or SysOps. We did not really use those terms that are much more common place today. Just an engineer who was wholly responsible for various web properties from end user experience to server up time.
