I would not call myself an operations expert by any means, but I have done quite a bit of infrastructure work in the past; both with bare metal setups and cloud based solutions.

With that said, the old database specialist position was about 80% engineering, 20% infrastructure, with the infrastructure work being done in cooperation with the production engineers.

I left the database team a good year ago and quite a lot has changed since then. I think these days we have a handful of people focusing on the database side of things.
