Being an DevOps Engineer at PowerAdvocate is a pretty sweet gig.  We work under Continuous Flow, a type of Agile development method that empowers developers and DevOps Engineer’s alike to control the size of their workload, meaning that you’ll never be trying to beat a deadline somebody else made for you.
