Call with hiring manager and day long interviews with 7+ different people.
Coding depends on the type of team you are getting interviewed with.
That said, as SRE - interview focussed is on your ability to build scalable systems and focus on the monitoring stuff/Missing elements. your third process in solving issues which includes triaging troubleshooting or what not.
Coding is present and varies with teams. Focus on your resume is what I'd say. Get a clear grasp of projects you have done. I chocked a bit in getting to nitty gritty details as I put initial effort in building project and then it's all enhancements.
Coding goes with simple DS logics to tech specific questions. See if interviewer is expecting a specific technology related solutions as all tech stacks don't have the features they might ask. I use tech stack on demand and it's always my proficiency depends on use case and the amount time I worked on the problem statement is.
It's funny that SRE interviews in many companies have coding DS and Algo as the major drivers. I say stay strong on your roots. Why SRE. What can you do as an SRE. What could you have done as an SRE.
coding is present and it might be 10-20percent depending on the team. Note that you have to master the network internals also.
let the community know how it went.
All the very best.
