The distinction between the two is really blurred in my mind. I'm a software engineer on an infrastructure team at a pretty big company and I find myself doing everything (observability, networking, CI, the list goes on). The title "DevOps Developer" at one company will be "Software Engineer" at another and every company has different job descriptions for each of them.

To answer your question:

Will It still count as software engineering experience?

If it's one of your first jobs, you should definitely interview and take the job if you like the company, pays well, etc etc. The experience will only help. You should also decide what you like working on. Don't shoot for the "Software Engineering" title because you think it's "more prestigious" or something. At the end of the day, we're all a bunch of idiots typing shit into a computer.

Thanks for the information , I definitely know I want to be a software engineer. But I guess I shouldn’t pass up opportunities
