Imagine a customer reports that their UiPath Orchestrator is experiencing intermittent slowness, with API calls taking up to 10 seconds to respond. What steps would you take to diagnose the root cause, considering potential bottlenecks in the database, application server, or network?
Software EngineerSystem Design & DebuggingTests: Evaluates problem solving, debugging methodology, and understanding of distributed systems at scale.Our Robot service needs to reliably execute unattended automation jobs. Describe how you would design a robust retry mechanism for job execution, considering factors like idempotency, error handling, and backoff strategies to prevent overwhelming downstream systems.
Software EngineerSystem DesignTests: Assesses design thinking, fault tolerance, and experience with designing reliable systems.A common issue involves UiPath Robots failing to connect to Orchestrator. Given a scenario where a customer's Orchestrator is reachable via ping but Robot connection fails, what are the likely causes and how would you troubleshoot them?
Software EngineerDebuggingTests: Tests practical debugging skills and knowledge of common failure points in client-server communication.Design a data structure to efficiently store and retrieve a large number of automation workflows, where each workflow has multiple versions and dependencies on other workflows. Consider the trade-offs between read and write performance, storage space, and complexity.
Software EngineerData Structures & AlgorithmsTests: Evaluates understanding of data structures and their application to specific product challenges.How would you approach building a feature that allows users to dynamically assign tasks from a UiPath Queue to available robots based on specific business rules and robot availability, ensuring high throughput and low latency?
Software EngineerSystem DesignTests: Assesses system design skills for real-time, high-throughput applications.Write a SQL query to find the top 10 most frequently used UiPath activities across all executed jobs in the last 7 days, joining data from a hypothetical 'jobs' and 'activity_logs' table.
Software EngineerCoding (SQL)Tests: Tests SQL proficiency for data analysis.
