An SRE responsible for Kubernetes and Docker production environments who doesn't understand the fundamentals of how they work wouldn't be of much use to me. Sure they can probably follow scripted runbooks but I want people who can deep dive into advanced trouble-shooting. TBF, there are uses for those that don't get it, but they're usually the lesser paid folks who work night and weekend on-call rotations.
- sombremesa 5y ago> I want people who can deep dive into advanced trouble-shooting In my experience, people who need to know every little thing rarely end up knowing every little thing, and are actually the absolute worst at fixing issues of high urgency - due to needing to know every little thing. I'd much rather have people who are able to learn fast on the fly. Those are the people who actually end up knowing the little things that are actually useful, as opposed to useless trivia.
