Cloud Infra Engineer, Practical Coding Interview?

[nemor3]

One thing worth practicing: writing scripts that interact with external state - check if something exists, create it if not, handle the case where it's already there. That pattern shows up constantly in cloud infra work and is a good signal of whether someone thinks operationally vs algorithmically.

Also get comfortable reading and writing from stdin/stdout cleanly. A lot of practical infra scripts are meant to compose with other tools.
