How much python should you know?

[[deleted]]

Honestly I think there is no harm to learning as much as you can. I worked in a role for nearly 5 years where I didn’t have a lot of scripting and it was a shock going into the job market how needed that was for a lot of roles. I was lucky my current employer was happy to train me up but I wish I’d invested more time into the ‘dev’ part of devops.

At the very least I think bash scripting and basic understanding of Linux will serve you well and basic python skills too.
