Hell, I thought "full stack" meant all the way down into OS drivers, and ability to debug damn near anything.

I joke that I'm a "full full stack" developer. Writing JS (bare, or in a framework like React or Angular or whatever), backend (Python, Elixir, Go, Ruby, etc...), install the OS or design cloud infrastructure, attach GDB or ptrace to processes if they're misbehaving, use tcpdump to watch packet flows, program kernel drivers, put together a toolchain and JTAG for microcontrollers, and design schematics & board layouts (analog or digital, not great at RF... yet).
Same and that ends up being in the operations wheelhouse.
