Start with roles that match your current level, keep learning on the job, and grow towards the senior skills in this path.
Indicative yearly pay, in lakh rupees (LPA). Pay varies with city, company, skills and certifications, so use these as a guide, not a promise.
Rounded ranges from public salary surveys (AmbitionBox, Glassdoor and PayScale India), checked November 2026. Bangalore, Hyderabad and Pune often pay above these ranges, and product companies and global capability centres pay more than service companies.
Both automate and run production systems. DevOps engineers focus on the delivery pipeline and infrastructure; SREs focus on reliability targets, monitoring and incident response.
Developers build the product's features. DevOps engineers build the pipelines, infrastructure and tooling that ship and run those features.
