You should learn some AWS and use it as a trojan horse to get those jobs. As a former old school sysadmin I really took to it because it's so modular and feels like Unix's "collection of simple tools piped together". Plus, any old school admin is a treasure on any cloud team because the need to drop to shell is unavoidable. People think they don't need sysadmins on cloud teams but behind every good cloud team are a few good sysadmins.
