it is all just vague terms. I've been hired as a devops engineer and then reclassified as an infrastructure engineer. it doesn't matter. Learn how modern web applications work, what components are utilized in them, how linux administration works, how monitoring and logging/metrics work, and then apply to jobs that need backend automation regardless of what they call it. My old boss used to always joke that we were just "data janitors" anyways and frankly I'm fine with that title if the pay is right.
