Platform Engineer Interview Questions

1,795 platform engineer interview questions shared by candidates

Live coding was related to explaining what the code was meant to do, fixing a bug, refactoring and some additional follow-up questions. You only have one hour, and since you will be coding in Coderpad and not your local environment, my advice is to not spend that much time with refactoring and to try to get to the follow-up questions stage. Kafka round was just pure theory and questions regarding "what would you do in x hypothetical case" Behavioral was pretty chill with regular questions. Just be yourself and honest.
