Your question is Optimize Cloud Compute Costs. Take a moment with it on the right.
Talk me through your thinking if you like. When you're confident, submit your answer and I'll grade it like a real screen (7/10 or better passes).
Case study: discuss how you would optimize cloud compute machine costs. Asked in the power day: case study stage. The interviewer noted that the case was not ML-related and phrased it as “you might be asked.” Explain how you would assess current usage, identify savings opportunities, coordinate with engineering and finance stakeholders, and manage performance or reliability trade-offs. Address how you would prioritize actions, validate savings, and monitor results after implementation.
