Thanks for the feedback. We do our best to make the interviewing process as candidate-oriented as possible, but we do not always get it right. We have discussed your comments with the interviewing team.
I also want to share a bit more info on the DevOps role.
It is definitely a unique position. We are looking for someone to implement and automate operational tasks and have deep knowledge of the systems we use (operating systems, databases, application framework) to help the engineering team respond to, understand and troubleshoot production issues. Deep knowledge of how the operating system and database work under the hood helps immensely when architecting the infrastructure, or solving an issue. We use Ruby for both our application code and our automation infrastructure and we expect DevOps engineers to work side-by-side with the rest of the engineering team, following the same processes for their development too.
