Generally in my experience, a company that's looking for a DevOps engineer does not know what DevOps is.
DevOps is great, but it's not a title. It's beautifully summarized in "The DevOps Handbook" and it's fictional counterpart "The Pheonix Project". It's about culture.
Some people might feel different and want to re-evaluate due to so many company adapting it in a similar vein many companies want to adapt agile. But make no mistake, you can't define it then, since then the context of the company defines the word. Thus sadly the word is slowly loosing its meaning.
This is likely due to lots of management people wanting to adapt the buzzword without understanding it. This since it has have had such a great success in many companies that actually know what it is, have taken the DevOps culture to heart and implemented processes in line with it.
