A DevOps professional needs:
Business skills: Understanding the business context and value.
Technical skills: Automation, coding, cloud, infrastructure.
Core (soft) skills: Collaboration, communication, empathy, learning.
Self-management: Time, priorities, feedback.
Other options miss the full blend or focus too much on tech or process.
Extract-style reference:
“DevOps success requires a blend of business, technical, and core (soft) skills, as well as the ability to self-manage and continuously learn.”
