How do you get to be a serverless expert?

Start a company using FaaS as your base backend technology, run it for 18 months plus, through at least one funding round (and due diligence) and building a team around it (to learn CI patterns and code sharing)

Something like that
Why? Because you learn by doing.

Another option is to be in a big org and take on a project and make a FaaS your base backend tech and see what happens over 12-18 months through multiple iterations and team growth.
The timescale and team growth are important

There are things you don't fully understand until you have to share code amongst a wider team and also until you have to justify some of the technical decisions you're making.

Some of the things you think should be clever are missteps
