Hi All, Having spent some time at $dayjob trying to get the automation wheel rolling (nearly 2 years now) and still getting nowhere I think it’s time to move on (there is a shed load of other reasons too of course). NETCONF/Yang/OpenConfig are the bread and butter of the future in my opinion, I also believe that all engineers should be able to program to some basic extent (I know, I’m like an evil dictator right?). So with that in mind I am trying to find a new company to have me but one that also has an interest in these technologies and shares my ideologies about the service abstraction, data models and automation who needs a new network engineer with some programming skills (to live out my dream of near total network automation).
I’m not a fan of buzzwords but I think the rising “NetDevOps” phrase describes the position I am looking for best, however it’s proving very difficult to find openings. I only know of a handful of networks that have openly expressed their interest in prioritising the same ideas as me and not many of them have openings. So my question to the list is, who else shares these ideas and has open positions (or, who do you know of)? Cheers, James.
