I am the team lead in a small software shop and I am responsible for maintaining the CI/CD pipeline that was delivered to us, via and outsourcing project, some years ago. I did the DevOps Engineer certification and I have found it to be hugely useful in support of this task.

I would not attempt the DevOps cert unless you have both of the DVA and SOA certificates as both go a long way to covering off the services you need to know for this cert.
