Issues/Questions:

  1. Is there any configure we're not aware of that provisions that guest? How is the current VMware image built? (Is this captured anywhere?) What's the current process?

    • "Want build scripts or configuration management for the terraform build worker guest VM"
  2. Can we build KVM images with our current CircleCI setup?

  3. How do I make my interviews more consistent? Listening to the engineering all-hands has made me realize that there's a lot of room for me to combat bias in my interviews.

Solutions:

  1. I asked kyriakos for context, and he provided TBW build scripts

  2. Asked the eng-serv team about this possibility, need to discuss with barry what our reasonable way forward is

  3. Created this document to keep track of my interview questions to work towards a more consistent interview process.

  4. looked into the following to see if it was a good template for spinning up a packer image with ubuntu 18.04. It is, but it's still missing qemu-related work
