What exactly is Devops/Devrel roles??

I have seen a number of Devops/DevRel engineers visiting tech conferences across the world and earning really good money. Being a fresher in software engineering I would like to know more about the roles and responsibilities of a Devops/Devrel engineer. Also what roadmap should I follow after software Engineering in order to become a good Devops engineer.

P.S - If any one of you is a Devops/DevRel engineer then do mention it in your reply.

Though I havent worked as Devops guy but have closed worked with in Apple. They manage all the infra from deployments to creating and managing CI/CD pipelines, write scripts as a language agnostic developer (any language whichever is required. Handling all nodes of servers and databases, managing endpoints, cloud, knowing all linux commands. In a nutshell, a developer is just responsible for code, a devops guy/sre guy is responsible for everything else once the code is written. 24/7 availbility, super quick to provide resolutions for multiple breakdowns at any instance. they work in shifts to provide the best SLA!
thats what i have seen first hand.

I don't have to Google him I am following him since he was a part of edtech start up named code for cause. And I do agree that wemakedevs have a lot of resources regarding the same. I wanted to hear from people who have closely worked with any DevRel engineers or is a one.
