I'm currently a junior data engineer working with Data Bricks Asset Bundles, focusing on deploying and testing data pipelines while integrating with Git for version control. I'm curious how this experience translates to a role in DevOps and whether it's relevant enough to help me land a job in that field.

It sounds like you're on the right path! You're dealing with deployment, version control, and pipeline management—all important aspects of DevOps. If you want to switch to DevOps, I recommend diving into Kubernetes. Learning how to automate and manage Kubernetes infrastructure and applications across platforms like AWS and Azure will really boost your skills.
While your DataOps experience is valuable, it's not exactly the same as DevOps. Those data pipelines don't equate to CI/CD pipelines. You might want to focus on getting a junior developer or sysadmin role first to build a broader knowledge base. Consider earning certifications in Azure or AWS, and work on building practical projects. Networking and understanding core infrastructure will help you a lot! Good luck!
As someone who works in DevOps closely with data teams, I see your experience with DABs as part of the DevOps world, but it might not be enough for a full-on DevOps role. It's pretty niche, which might be suitable for certain companies, but you may need broader experience. Can you take on more responsibilities involving the underlying Databricks workspaces and their associated cloud accounts?
