Site Reliability Engineer Interview Experience

Process

Pretty much exactly as others described here. A recruiter pinged me about the position via LinkedIn.

There was a short call, followed by a coding interview and a technical interview.

This was then followed by a multi-hour interview with different teams, which included:

  • Code review
  • System architecture & design
  • Incident response
  • Behavioral meeting with a hiring manager
  • Hands-on troubleshooting

Questions

Systems are bouncing after a new version is deployed and a rollback fails. What do you do? How do you escalate? What do you include in your post-mortem and future mitigation steps?
