My efforts reduce time spent in incidents for on call engineers. I actively allow them to work less, and they usually fight me on it, hahaha.
I'm an automation engineer working for a large cloud operator.
Keep fighting the good fight. In my experience with SRE/automation work, people tend to fight change just because it's change and not realize just how much time they're spending on toil and similar tasks.
Oh there's lots of buy in from the top. We can't continue to scale without automation.
It's either happening with the current operators, or without them. :)
