What do you call the people who:
- Use Terraform to build infrastructure as code
- Get involve in containerising applications
- Run and operate Kubernetes
- Spend a lot of time on CI/CD
- Improve the development experience
- Implement service discovery
- Build and run developer platforms
- (To a lesser extent) Build and run cloud environments including Serverless components
This seems like a new set of responsibilities which don’t fit cleanly into Development or Sys Admin, and are substantial enough such that someone could specialise in this role full time.
I think that DevOps as a job title is one of the best things that ever happened to the industry.

- stevefenton 4y agoYou may like Platform Engineering even more as there's a lot of crossover with what you mention. A key difference from your list is that you enable teams to build and run their own applications, so they remain responsible throughout. You would provide a simpler way for them to do it, so they could self-serve.
