You'll find DevOps engineers (which isn't a thing[1], but unfortunately, is a thing) wherever there's a tech product being developed, and SRE you'll find wherever a company has figured out that they need a real discipline to organize keeping their website/product/service reliably up. "Plain old" businesses could benefit greatly from DevOps. Even health care and higher-ed. The problem is, "regular people" see "IT people" as this mysterious cabal, and the people "in IT" often remain at exactly the same skill level and keep the same practices out of habit. But even a "regular old" IT department can up-skill with DevOps and SRE practices. There's a lot of practical advice buried within those two buzzwords. I still consider myself a Sysadmin, but I learned later how to "do DevOps", Site Reliability Engineering, and Systems Engineering. Even if you only work on small projects, it can really level up your career, and how your brain works in general. [1] https://duckduckgo.com/?q=there's+no+such+thing+as+a+devops+engineer.
