You just described a CRUD app.

At FAANG, most people are not doing any of these things. Think of people working on EC2, Ads or Maps.

I only worked at multiple FAANG and I never had to design a database schema or make data available via API.

Google publishes many APIs. I know, because we consume them. My company in turn publishes APIs that are consumed by other companies. You're probably right that most people working at FAANG are not allowed to touch a database or set up deployments, however.
