Devops may be what a good sysadmin does. I'm not sure that job is. Looks far more like they're looking for a developer to write sysadmin tools.
I'm sad that people are not taking the time to learn exactly what DevOps means and thusly commandeering the name for whatever they think they need.
Now I know that "DevOps" means "those who forget history are doomed to repeat it". Whenever you come across something in IT you think is new, take the time to find out if mainframe shops were doing it in the 1970s... Back then sysadmins wrote assembly language to automate systems tasks and it was just an everyday part of the job!
