> Would you rather hire someone that solves your "exact" problem, or the one-man Army that -could- do everything? Which matters to you?

Well . . . people always assume they have the answers, so they've designed an exact position to do what they think they need.

But if they need it and can't fulfill the need themselves, they probably don't know what they need.

The company, composed of vain people, is more likely to hire someone that solves their "exact" not-really-problem.

In my opinion it's okay to not be able to pinpoint the exact problem, thats what I tried to imply by using the quotations.

This is why I position myself as Consultant and Engineer, because you will know you have a problem with your cluster, and I should know how to solve it.

When you are at the point, where your question is: "I need someone to fix my internal ingress-controller because traefik binds all services to the public one", you might simply need to open an issue with the developers of traefik.

Yet if your problem is: "we would like to completly separate internal traffic from external traffic inside our own datacenter", you are looking for the kubernetes devops guy with the neccesairy experience.
