I need some advice. I am a QA engineer. Good in tech skills. I would like to move away from QA. I got 2 job opportunities 1 in DevOps and other as a Java Developer. It is in within same organization. I applied for 2 diff positions. Interestingly got offer for both!! Salary wise no significant difference!.



I hate management. Anything technical, design, architecture is what excites me! I like both coding & infrastructure management as that's what i have been doing all these years as QA automation engineer. But now very confused which path to choose. I understand that you can not answer for me - also technology would keep changing. but I would like to know what you think considering the growth, demand - devops or development?
