Depends what you actually want to do. Our SREs spend a large portion of their job writing software. They are also allowed to refuse to support unstable services. Switching SRE responsibilities back to development teams.
I wouldn’t say same but in my current role as SRE at Apple, it’s really very good. I get to write cool tools which supposedly improves our system. Coding proficiency cannot be compared to SWE but it’s different and very interesting
