One company I worked for opened a position for an ops person on the team.
They shadow-IT’d their way to launch and we’re hugely successful, not the business is largely re-orging to better fit the paradigm.
Was a big gamble. The wrong person could have left a mountain of tech-debt.
My difficulty is that mandated separation of responsibilities within our org is preventing us from embedding ops in dev.
Anyone successfully fought against this and have tips?
