> This role is similar to others I've had in the past. It's great because there's lots of flexibility and not much micromanagement.

...is there _lots of flexibility_ ? Looks like you're stuck between the hammer and the anvil to me. You either kill yourself or the backlog grows forever, to top it all you don't seem to be getting much appreciation...

Company's should be pushing you to get trainings, not the other way around.

The market is hot for SRE/DevOps, especially if you have experience with kubernetes/swarm/nomad and cloud providers (AWS, GCP, Azure, etc.), I think you should move on. Look for a company that has an infrastructure _team_ to join. Will be a lot more fun.

Flexibility in the sense I basically manage my own Kanban, but you have a point that it is constraining at this point. I like the fact that I mostly manage my own work, and plan to do some more task management to hopefully alleviate some of the pain before I start looking.
