How does one go about becoming a chaos engineer? I imagine up to this point it is a field one falls into accidentally and gains experience over time. I can imagine it becoming a topic taught at a college level in the near future.

Not really, you probably start with an entry-level sysadmin/devops position, and work your way from fire-fighting incident to firefighting incident.

You just need an appreciation that any down-time in a system is a symptom of larger problems, and the will to identify (and reproduce as chaos!) those problems.
