A systems engineering range

What brings you here?

Crucible drops engineers into a running system that misbehaves under load. Practice on it, or assess the engineers you hire and train.

  • Fix a running system under load.

    • Edit code and config in the browser, no setup.
    • Real containers running real services, not mocks.
    • A hidden judge tests your fix and scores it.
  • Assess engineers on a realistic incident, not a quiz.

    • Choose who can enter and whether copy and paste work.
    • The clock starts at the briefing; candidates can't pause it.
    • Read each candidate's report and integrity timeline.
