Stating the obvious, perhaps find a role which requires zero on-call? None of my backend (Java/Python) colleagues do any on-call, and sticking to contracted hours (09:00-17:30) is encouraged by team leads. I've done a fair amount of on-call over the years and now pivoted from Ops handling production to internal projects. System uptime simply isn't my responsibility any more :)
- lknfrnpt 4y agoI'd love to dig into this a little bit. Any ideas? The hypothetical examples that stand out to me are security engineering type roles in which the teams in question might not actually own the operations of infrastructure they build/maintain. I know a tiny set of people who work on operating systems at various levels for consumer devices (i.e., Android these days). How prevalent are those jobs? How do they stack up in terms of comp and hiring demand?
