Hi platformers :blob-waver:, quick question about team structure for you all.
I was a QA for about 7 years before moving into platform engineering. My entrance into platform engineering was by becoming a QA for a platform team. This gave me an opportunity to bring skill/knowledge to the team from one angle, while learning a host of new skills from them.
I am curious if you all have test backgrounded people on your platform/DevOps/Infra/SRE/{insert team name} teams? If so, how do you find it and how did you decide on having them on the team? If not, is this something you think would be good/bad/indifferent?
Asking for a few friends who also want to move more towards platform engineering, but are finding a bit of a brick wall coming from testing/test automation.
