With so many titles in the DevOps/SRE space, it is easy to be confused about the role and how it relates to your experience. Take a look at the infographic below, which is helpful to clear up some of the confusion.
A job title that includes DevOps or SRE is a great starting point, but it's essential to learn the nuances of how companies design their roles.
To be clear, every company is different, and the same title from one company to another may mean completely different roles and responsibilities.

Don't get mistaken by a job title; use the Shades of DevOps infographic to understand the breadth and depth of roles within the industry.
