Why are you assuming that devops engineers aren’t embedded in development teams?
The problem you’re suffering from is assuming that the limited range of situations you’re familiar with is the same as what everyone else is doing.
Rule #1 is never make assumptions about anyone on the internet…
In the past 8 years I’ve led the architecture of a startup - cloud + app dev. Then spent almost 4 years working at AWS ProServe involved with large cloud + app dev “cloud application modernization” projects and now 2 years doing the same as a staff level consultant at a 3rd party consulting firm. I think I’ve seen my fair share of how large private companies, startups, government organizations and colleges work.
A lot of my projects pre AI involved bringing modern DevOps practices to an organization - convincing operations to use IAC and best practices and have them more embedded into the dev teams.
