I see lot of job postings in various job portals looking for "Devops Engineer" with 2yrs/ 3yrs experience listing down all the tools like Jenkins, k8s, nagios... This is making young engineers to just learn these tools and config them so that they job market ready. These engineers might easily miss the lesson on why those tools were even made and what programming challenges gave the opportunities to create these tools first hand. I agree with you that there cannot be a devops role as its a process. I was referring as "Devops role" based on those job postings, SRE might be apt as you pointed out.
