DevOps Engineer

What this interview asks about

How you behave when something is down, and what you change so it does not happen the same way twice.

• A pipeline you fixed that was quietly slowing everyone down
• A setup that behaved differently in production
• An infrastructure decision that was hard to reverse
• Something you automated that used to be done by hand
• An incident you were in the middle of, and what you did first

How it is scored

• Whether the answer actually addresses the question asked
• Whether you give a concrete example rather than a general principle
• Whether the reasoning holds together from start to finish

It does not score your accent, your speed, or how many long words you use.
