Process

I applied online. The process took 1 day.

  • Systems Design: Focusing on scalability, high availability, and fault tolerance.
  • Troubleshooting/Linux: Real-world incident scenarios, analyzing logs, and deep-dive kernel/networking questions.
  • Coding/Automation: Writing robust scripts for infrastructure management.
  • Behavioral/Cultural Fit: Discussing on-call experiences, handling pressure, and "blameless postmortems".
