Thank You For Your Interest In CyberFortress

If you're reading this, our company has definitely piqued your interest. We're glad you have made it this far and we hope to get to know you more! Please follow the instructions to submit your application.

As per our culture, we base all merit upon what you are capable of and not upon any certifications or education. Being counter-culture, consider this your resume. Given that, we thought that this would be a creative way to express that and allow you, the applicant, to express yourself.

Instructions

Fork this repository and follow the scenario below. The user data is located in dataset.csv. Be sure to meet all the objectives. When you are finished, open a PR against this repository and we will review it and reach out to you via PR comments. Take as long as you need. We prefer quality work even if it takes extra time.

Scenario

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to build an API which, given a user's unique identifier, should tell us whether it is raining in the location where the user lives.

Unfortunately addresses are Personally Identifiable Information and we don't want to expose that information to anyone.

This is where your API comes in. We need you to store all of that information in a database that isn't accessible by anything or anyone other than your service.

Tools

You are free to use any language or tools you desire. Just be aware that we are a Go, Python, and JavaScript shop currently, but we aren't afraid of using different tech given the proper circumstances.

Use any weather API of your choosing.

Objectives

• Under no circumstances should any of the users information be publicly available.

• Your project must be tested with at least 80% branch coverage.

• Your storage engine must be a database. Which flavor is up to you.

• We must be able to run the service locally.

Bonus Points

• Docker

• Kubernetes

• Docker Compose

• Terraform

• Any CI/CD solution

• A web based user interface

• Scrape randomlists.com to generate your own user dataset. (Please scrape responsibly. Don't scrape too much or too often. I've emailed the dev to let me buy him some beers in preparation for this, but he hasn't got back to me yet and I'd like to not spend hundreds of dollars on beers for our friend.)
