Sample interview questionsHow would you design a GPU cluster topology for large-scale distributed LLM training?I would begin with workload characteristics such as model size, training parallelism, communication patterns, storage throughput, and availability targets. I would then define a modular pod architecture with balanced GPU density, non-blocking or appropriately oversubscribed InfiniBand or RoCE fabrics, high-throughput storage, and clear scaling boundaries. Finally, I would validate the design through simulation, benchmark representative workloads, and incorporate observability and failure-domain requirements from the outset.

What trade-offs do you consider when choosing InfiniBand versus RoCEv2?

I assess latency and bandwidth needs, GPU collective communication behavior, operational maturity, existing network standards, cost, and the team’s ability to manage lossless Ethernet requirements. InfiniBand is often compelling for predictable HPC performance and mature GPU workload tooling, while RoCEv2 can integrate effectively into Ethernet-based environments when congestion control, PFC, ECN, and telemetry are engineered carefully. The choice should be validated against real workload benchmarks and operational risk.

How would you identify and resolve a performance bottleneck in a distributed training cluster?

I would correlate application-level metrics, collective communication telemetry, GPU utilization, CPU and PCIe activity, fabric counters, and storage latency. This helps separate bottlenecks caused by data loading, network congestion, topology imbalance, stragglers, insufficient storage throughput, or software configuration. I would test a focused hypothesis, compare results against a known baseline, and deploy the remediation with monitoring to confirm sustained improvement.

How do you design for reliability across multiple GPU data-center sites?

I define failure domains at the node, rack, pod, fabric, storage, and site levels, then ensure the scheduler and control planes can tolerate failures within those boundaries. I include redundant network paths, capacity headroom, hardware health monitoring, automated remediation, and well-tested recovery procedures. For multi-site designs, I also clarify which workloads require local high-performance communication and which can safely use asynchronous replication or federated control.

Describe how you would use automation and telemetry in operating GPU infrastructure.

I would automate repeatable lifecycle tasks such as provisioning, configuration validation, firmware compliance, health checks, and capacity inventory using version-controlled workflows. Telemetry should cover GPU, network, storage, power, cooling, and workload-level signals with actionable alert thresholds and dashboards. The goal is to detect degradation early, shorten incident resolution, and provide data that feeds future architectural decisions.
