Design Multi-Tenant Network Policies with Calico Tier Enforcement
Overview
What this challenge is about.
Design Multi-Tenant Network Policies with Calico Tier Enforcement. Advanced challenge in design. Designing real products under real constraints, earn a block...
The Brief
What you'll do, and what you'll demonstrate.
Design and roll out tiered Calico network policies enforcing default-deny with per-tenant allowlists across 120 customer namespaces and validate isolation with a 120x124 test matrix.
This is not a design exercise. It is the work a product designer does between a brief and a shipped interface. That distinction matters to every hiring manager who has seen candidates redesign Spotify's homepage and none who have worked under real product constraints.
When you finish, you will have something most graduates do not: a real-world deliverable, verified by Ewance, that you can show to a hiring manager and say "I did this. Here is the proof."
Earning criteria — what you'll demonstrate
- Design tiered network policies that scale across many tenants
- Use Calico stage policies to avoid breaking-change rollouts
- Validate isolation with an end-to-end test matrix
- Document policies cleanly enough that tenant onboarding stays cheap
