Hello everyone, I’m preparing for an interview for a Cloud Engineer role, with a strong focus on AWS. I have around 2 years of experience in cloud technologies, primarily working with AWS, and I want to ensure I’m fully prepared for the technical aspects of the interview. Here are the key topics I’m currently focusing on: 1. Terraform & Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Argo CD, Helm) 2. AWS Core Services: ECS and EKS (for container orchestration), EC2, S3, EFS, RDS, Lambda (for serverless applications) 3. Networking & Load Balancing:Network Load Balancer (NLB), Transport Layer Security (TLS),Route 53 for DNS 4. Security & Access Control: IAM (Identity and Access Management) 5. Monitoring & Observability: CloudWatch, Grafana 6. Cost Optimization:AWS tools and strategies to manage and reduce cloud costs 7. Orchestration & Deployment: EKS (Kubernetes on AWS) and using Helm for managing deployments I would greatly appreciate any advice on specific areas I should focus on or tips for navigating the technical interview. If anyone has gone through similar interviews, I’d love to hear about your experience and the types of questions you encountered. Additionally, if you have any useful resources (study guides, blogs, practice questions, videos), please feel free to share! Thanks so much for your help!
