13,167 lead devops engineer interview questions shared by candidates

Lots of Ansible, Docker and Terraform questions. Also, lots of theory (?) based questions. Like how would I implement some tech stack or a set of requirements. In the technical interviews I wrote a short Ansible playbook, a short terraform script, 1 LC python solution and 1 more application based python solution. I didn't perform well on the LC question so they other python question was provided as a way to redeem myself, I think. Also, there was a technical interview portion where I did some troubleshooting on one of the actual robots. They provided some of their troubleshooting docs and I had to find the issue and the solution from the docs. They also asked me alot about how I would implement and deploy their current tech stack, which was difficult because I didn't know lots about it. But I did pay close attention in all my previous interviews and would reference what other people had told me as I described how I would do things. I have to imagine this was favorably looked upon but I don't know. When I was offered the position they specifically mentioned that I had some skills that they felt would help progress some of their current projects.
