Are folks finding it relatively easier to get SRE positions now? Demand ought to be up.

I think SRE is a solid career pivot right now, especially if you have an overlapping skill set like mechanical/electrical engineering.

That's kind of where my careers been, it seems like sre has been rebranded infrastructure and platform engineering and there's not to much sre titled jobs. It's probably not to hard if you have demonstrated experience with the expected sre tools. If you happened to have made the unforgivable sin of not using k8s or terraform durring your career it sucks.
