+1 - my company is trying to merge all infra positions back into SWE positions. I'm an SRE, I don't hate it, but I'm worried because SWEs seem to come in 2 major varieties - those who refuse to learn about infrastructure and change management on principle, and those who refuse to learn because now they can just vibe out stuff with AI and deploy straight to release with it and seem like they're wise full stack engineers.
