Rivan Industries interview questions

Thanks for applying to Rivan! I’m interested to know: Generally: What's your realm of genius - i.e the area you're best at / want to do more work in? What you think our biggest engineering issues are (knowing our system on a high-level)? Whether you have any personal projects you've tinkered on / built? Can be anything - just not uni / work related. Technically: How might you go about designing a factory-based system to assemble, program/configure, and deploy the embedded systems 100 Rivan systems a year? Requirements: automate functionality and safety tests; ensure traceability of parts, tests conducted, and software loaded; ensure integrity of embedded systems (i.e., known-good hardware and software used); ensure system is provisioned for remote, autonomous actions. Suppose you had a fleet of off-grid synthetic gas plants that communicate back to a fleet management system. This system requires >90% communications uptime and provides near real-time performance and operational data back to a server, and can receive commands from the server to adjust key operational parameters (e.g. hydrogen production, target battery charge state). How would your system handle lost data and ensure secured access to command the systems? Please be specific about technologies you might consider for these solutions, and use diagram(s) where appropriate.
