Senior DevOps Engineer Interview Experience - San Francisco, California
Process
He took my interview.
They asked me to create a Node.js application that stores and fetches data.
I created a Docker application and invoked the Node application from outside Docker, which gets and fetches data.
I'm not sure what they wanted.
One question he had was why I was using Ubuntu instead of a Node image. The reason was to install required software from the base image and configure it accordingly, rather than fetching from the internet.
Other than that, I have a working solution developed from scratch.
He didn’t ask me anything about Terraform, and we still had 15 minutes left.

Salesforce Work Experiences
- 5.0Great place to workSenior DevOps Engineer • Current EmployeeSan Francisco, California, United StatesJuly 17, 2020Pros: Awesome environment, great people, optimistic.Cons: None. Perhaps a bit hectic and pressure.
- 1.0Good companies have rotten apples tooSenior DevOps Engineer • Current EmployeeSan Francisco, California, United StatesAugust 29, 2019Pros: Good company benefits. If the team you work for does not work out, there is an OOM policy for you to leave the team and join another one.Cons: Middle management is incapable of leading the team. All they care about is managing upward. My colleague was promoted to my manager, and I found out that he listed my work in his achievement list. What a joke. Besides that, he was trying to get a replacement for my peer, and every candidate he shortlisted was Indian. Both external and internal OOM candidates. Downright racist.
- 5.0Senior DevOps EngineerSenior DevOps Engineer • Current EmployeeSan Francisco, California, United StatesJanuary 20, 2017Pros: Employees First Culture. Great salaries. Great benefits and perks. Always feel like you are in a startup, but very stable. You can change teams internally. I know people who have worked in at least 10 teams. You never feel monotonous. Great leadership. Great VTO services. Everyone spends at least 40 hours in a year. Many spend more. Always tries to keep a great culture.Cons: Frankly, not much. Sometimes, I see many teams are slow in implementing a change. Most companies are advancing in adapting newer technologies, but I see it takes more time in Salesforce, probably due to its size of enterprise business.
