A a friend of mine said he could recommend me to a junior DevOps role at the company he works in, but I'm interested mostly in back-end development and DevOps is not really something I like. The question is: could I use experience as a DevOps to later switch to back-end? Edit: more detail

Devops is a nice skill to have for a backend developer, however I'm not sure it is fair on your friend if you take a role you don't really want and might not perform well in.
