Interview Prompt

We collect telemetry from millions of connected vehicles - speed, braking events, OBD sensor readings, and ADAS alerts - and need to make this data available to our safety analytics and predictive maintenance teams. Our current setup has no IaC and promoting a pipeline change from dev to prod involves a manual Confluence checklist. Design the pipeline architecture and the operational model for deploying and promoting changes safely.

Summary

Every vehicle is a sensor. Deploy the pipeline to catch it all.

How This Interview Works

  1. Read the vague prompt (just like a real interview)
  2. Ask clarifying questions to the AI interviewer
  3. Write your pipeline design solution with real code execution
  4. Get instant feedback and a hire/no-hire decision
