SRE implements DevOps as part of our work. SRE also tends to imply a very Googlish approach to service reliability (a focus on SLI/SLOs, for example). You will often find us embedded in development teams.

DevOps as initially defined is a practice, not a role. Most companies who have "DevOps" engineer roles aren't actually practicing DevOps and have siloed off "operations" as a separate concern. DevOps in that context usually equates to "sysadmin + cloud" with little to no shift in culture or process.

That is so true. DevOps is firstly culture, only then processes and tools 🙂
