Even though this is the first time I have heard the term DevOp I used to be one. I would write the code, test the code, install the code, go on-site and train the users, handle the user feedback (errors or just simply whining), repeat, repeat, repeat.
Now I work in an environment where I write the code, test the code, then hand it off for independent testing, installation, user training, etc. I get to fix reported errors - but there are now less of those because I can concentrate on the development and testing processes.
Some losses include getting to know the customers and stuff like that but instead of having a few dozen customers for my work I now have hundreds, perhaps thousands so that isn't practical anymore.
I like it better now and don't have to suffer from telephone twitch while trying to work on something tricky.

Can I take a crack at translating this infuriating gibberish?
"DevOps are software engineers that know what to do and why."
Is that it? Because I honestly haven't understood a single f***ing word anyone has said to try and define it that doesn't already describe every competent software engineer.

this one is analogous to like "multitasking", "team", "cloud" blah blah blah
As developer in financial sector, every so often we need to attend to production environment but never "Cloud" - and I'm not aware any big boys in town are too excited to put their apps/data there.
What's with "DevOp"? Does this actually sound cool to anybody? so what now specialist must also be jack-of-all-trades to be any useful? How about "CashOp"?
In today's competitive environment it's no longer sufficient for developers to code/deploy/maintain/fix apps+infrastructure. They must also provide their own funding for their projects - thus, "CashOps" or "CashDev", or "Managing Developer" (how about that that sounds good?)
And now "The software also needs to make sense from a business point of view" --- What's this? Since when "Business Requirements" isn't the utmost authority? Is this the first job you're taking, or that you been living under a rock? Any enterprise developers knows they are not the boss and requirements, and thus spec, comes from the boss. (Perhaps you need take an MBA to understand how business works - for starter "It's not democracy")

From a jargonistic point of view, I'll need to leverage the cloud for your by networking with my peer-council for their buy-in.

Yes, Developers are not bees, they are humans. Because of this, there is a correct division of labor. We are always doing the job that could be another. And, not always, there is affinity and / or tune between members of a team.
