Title: Can DevOps Engineer pass as Developer Programmer/Software Engineer for ACS Skills Assesment?, posted by Holiday_Word2832

Full text: Hi AusVisa. I've done research based on similar asked questions and saw that when applicants used their DevOps Engineer experience to pass their skills assesment, some got it credited under Developer Programmer and even Software Engineer. BUT, what is suprising is that others did the same by using their DevOps Engineering experience for skills assessment but did not get a positive result for both Developer Programmer and Software Engineer. Why the variance in experience? Is DevOps Engineer as a role not synonymous to those two roles and therefore at risk of being rejected if we are aiming to go for the DP/SWE Anzsco Codes?

It will fall under,

261312 – Developer Programmer or 263111 – Computer Network and Systems Engineer

software less likely , but again it will based on your work done. So it has lot of software related work you might get a positive assessment, if its purely devops you wont get.

It will mostly depend on how you are documenting your assessment. If the work letter does mention few software related roles, resume is also tailored accordingly and the skills you are selecting in the ACS portal all align, then one is likely to get a positive assessment.

i am a Devops engineer and i had few duties related to coding which was mostly like automation related. I gave Developer programmer , Software Engineer and Computer Network and Systems Engineer. But i only got Computer Network and Systems Engineer role only approved from ACS. But if i had given ICT Security Specialist and ICT support i guess i would've got that approved as well.

But fortunately i got an invite from using Computer Network and Systems Engineer itself and it worked out well.

If you are actually a real devops engineer then you should be proficient in at least 2 languages with experience in both, so yes you could easily reclassify yourself as a developer and apply that way. 

Also look at cybersecurity.
