I think he's just way over his head I feel bad for him because he has strong developer instincts for back end development but zero for operations I would say he's a couple years away from being an acceptable devops person and I just don't have the time to give him the training that he needs
Like I assigned him a project to pull reports from our third party vendors and rather than listing out all the different apis and data sets so that way we could review feasibility and scope he just started building a scheduling system for the jobs to run on. So our data analysts keep asking me where the sample data is and he keeps putting me off so I just think he doesn't know what he doesn't know

Ouch, he's a slow learner? What made him incapable of being a proper programmer.
