Is the "ultimate-goal" to deliver thinks ASAP?

We can see things scaling up and priorities changing as you progress more as a developer. Interns and juniors always wanna be really good at coding and have a thing for pointlessly learning another framework. Then you wanna learn devops to deploy your own thing, and "how good you are at [language] gets forgotten" and before you know it you're barely programming, because you're doing it very fast and instead just learning how to best solve a problem

I'm asking because i saw my own progress as a dev and how i suddenly stopped caring about "which frameworks i worked on" because i can pick up any as needed, and saw how important devops is, hence why it's a Senior role (everybody's goal). I am talking to a cousin who is a devops senior, and he said that at his company they "judge" you by how fast you deliver, and ofc how much money you're making (or saving) for the company

Should our goal be to build things and build it fast? To ultimately make as much money as possible?

I'm asking at the pov of a developer wanting to grow in their career and make money. Not as an enterpreneur trying to create value. Albeit 'developer' and 'enterpreneur' overlap, more often than not
