Considering a slight change in career (lemmy.world)

I've been a systems engineer for about 5 years, and while I do appreciate the exposure to a bit more hardware than a pure software engineer role would give me, I still feel like 95% of my job is coding.

I've been considering switching to a DevOps role, and getting more involved with infrastructure.

My only real concern is that if I do this, it may be harder to break back into the engineering side if I ever decide I want to come back.

Does anyone have any experience or advice in this regard? Also, sorry if this isn't the best place to post this; Still trying to find all the new communities here.
