Choose the right perspective

Look for candidates who have personally specified equipment, managed integration work, or supported systems after deployment. Ask them to describe actual projects where technical decisions affected budget or performance. Avoid candidates who only discuss theory or vendor relationships.

Questions to take into the conversation

  1. 01What technical decision you made reduced operating costs, and what made you confident it would work?
  2. 02When a system failed to meet reliability targets, what caused it and how did you fix it?
  3. 03Which constraint—equipment capability, integration complexity, or maintenance demand—surprised you most on your last project?
