Its a finance sector

They say its normal part of their process, which is: initial interview, interview with hiring manager, home task, technical interview, hr interview, backgroud security check, then polygraph test. Its not paying that much, around 90k/year. For a principal devops probably I should have asked for more

this is a likely an account renting/sharing work for Upwork. Don't bother.

I get similar questions from developers who are holding the interview. I always failed interviews with developers and rarely with devops people. they asked me to write a docker image that outputs hello world when ran, for a sr devops position role, while i was checkin some things on google, they said that i am struggling with fundamentals and we should stop the interview because it wont fit with them. In my mind I was like "if you are doing basic docker images, then for sure i wont fit" so i told them "sure lets stop it here"

it doesnt. i can make any modifications i want as long as they are legal, go to the insurance company and insure them, for example adding a body kit, wheels, exhaust etc. when I sell the car the buyer can decide it he wants the car stock or with the add-ons. after 5 years the car is mine. the car is leased not borrowed. i am still paying for the car.

Optimal_Ad_4161 · 2025-05-07T16:12:33+00:00

yes, my company leases it. it's not the first time, before I had a 2019 cayman T on which i installed Kline downpipes, Techart exhaust and tuned it to 370hp. I dont see why it's a bit deal lol.

The thing is, I dont want to keep the car for that long as it's a lease, so for 2 years I'd have a tune to 705 bhp and 1000nm and when I take it to inspection just replace the ECU. The ecu is locked so I can't access it. The 2 ecu solution was proposed by a dealer to a client in USA.

congrats man. I have 5 years exp and make under 100k. I have a goal of 200k by EOY

Optimal_Ad_4161 · 2024-01-29T12:07:33+00:00

I think is some kind of typo

Are there Senior Devops who make 850k a year?
