I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Akamai in June 2024
Interview
First round was hiring manager round. Followed by three rounds, which were technical. This includes DSA and System design. You can be asked domain specific questions in all the above rounds.
The project required platform engineer who has knowledge of Linux , docker, Kubernetes. I was asked dynamic programming question which seems bit advanced and unreasonable for platform engineer profile.
Linux related questions around /proc, diff between vm and container, RAID, in-build containerisation in Linux, check resource consumption in Linux, elements required to set cloud computing platform, cgroups in Linux, how to move apps from docker to Kubernetes.
