Key takeaway · How to cite
Denominator: sum of current DevOps Engineer profiles across five exclusive company homepage records, as of 2026-09-24 PT.
Largest bench is Amazon at 560
Amazon sets the top of the range. Its own exclusive company homepage record, www.amazon.com, carries 560 current DevOps Engineer profiles as of 2026-09-24 PT. Nobody else in the pack comes close, and because the record is exclusive to Amazon, that 560 is not inflated by acquired or parent brands.

Fifth host Atlassian sits at 21
Atlassian closes the tail with 21 current DevOps Engineer profiles on its own exclusive company homepage record, www.atlassian.com, as of 2026-09-24 PT. A tail bench is not a dismissal: for hiring moves that need a precise seat picture, 21 is still a reachable, comparable pool.

Methodology
Counting rule for this chapter. Every figure is a count of current profiles on one named company's own exclusive homepage record — Amazon, Microsoft, Google, GitHub, Atlassian — never a rolled-up parent entity. The seat is kept deliberately narrow: spelled-out DevOps Engineer, with Senior counted in the same family. All numbers share a single as-of date, 2026-09-24 PT. Source: Metix AI.

FAQ
- Why these five companies and not other DevOps Engineer employers?
- Because each of the five — Amazon, Microsoft, Google, GitHub, Atlassian — has its own exclusive company homepage record, so its bench can be counted directly. Together they hold 1036 current DevOps Engineer profiles across the five exclusive company homepage records as of 2026-09-24 PT.
- Does the total of 1036 include Site Reliability Engineer or Platform Engineer titles?
- No. The 1036 is the sum of current DevOps Engineer profiles on the five exclusive company homepage records (560 + 296 + 123 + 36 + 21) as of 2026-09-24 PT; Site Reliability Engineer and Platform Engineer titles are counted outside this seat.
- Why does Amazon sit at 560 while Atlassian sits at 21?
- The counting rule is identical for both: current DevOps Engineer profiles on each company's own exclusive homepage record as of 2026-09-24 PT. Amazon's record holds 560 and Atlassian's holds 21, so the gap reflects bench depth rather than a different scope.
- Can this same DevOps Engineer seat cut be remade for a company outside the published 1036-person pack?
- Yes. The published DevOps engineering peer pack stays fixed at 1036 across the five exclusive homepage records as of 2026-09-24 PT, and the same spelled-out DevOps Engineer seat can be applied to another company record on request.
