Sounds like DevOps to me.

  No way. The Dev/Ops interface is one with very little information hiding, little responsibility segregation, very little outcome independence, and nearly no knowledge differentiation. The researcher/admin interface separates things with complete opposite qualities on each of those dimensions.

    The Dev/Ops interface is one with very little information hiding, little responsibility segregation, very little outcome independence, and nearly no knowledge differentiation. Both situations have a jack-of-all-trades problem lurking behind them.

    In all my experiences with devops, I’ve had to do their jobs for them in their entirety, but by proxy: “ok, first type ‘sudo service https start’. Now type ‘cd /var/log/httpd’. Then type...” Except I have to do it all up front, and if I miss an (obvious) step, somebody who ought to have no business yelling at me yells at me for providing incomplete instructions.

      Ah, yes, the DevOps blues... I sing it daily :(

      I thought DevOps folks are people who take an engineering mindset to operations, i.e. with both skills of software engineering and system administration? What you're describing sounds like someone with neither skillset.
