> a given generalist might wear

That generalist is your SRE/DevOps/Cloud Engineer in most cases.

This is why companies try to be increasingly cloud first - you can have 1 person do 3 jobs at once.

In very early stage startups you won't even have one dedicated SRE/DevOps/Cloud Engineer, you'll have a few Software Engineers who wear the DevOps hat as needed.

Even once you get a little bit bigger, I lean towards having a few generalists who wear more hats over breaking out a hat and putting it on a team of one.
