Senior Site Reliability Engineer Interview Experience - Menlo Park, California
Process
One of the most positive interviews I've had, even though I didn't get the job.
There was an online coding interview, followed by an on-site interview.
On-site, I was interviewed by four people:
- One was a Head of SWE.
- One was an SRE.
- Two others.
On-site lunch was provided.
Although I didn't get the role, probably because my Python skills are not good enough yet, I had a positive experience overall. The facility is great and I was treated well.
Questions
Without giving anything away, the primary software question was a list and dictionary comprehensions problem.
Without being too specific, the second question involved mapping out a cloud platform system with specific business requirements. Questions were asked about what if various load and availability concerns arose. I think I did well on this portion, and it was actually kind of fun and interesting.
