Automaark builds production software, AI systems, automation and go-to-market infrastructure for clients. What matters day to day is picking up something you didn't make, working out what's really going on, and doing it properly. Interviews reward talking about that. Labs lets you show it.

In every Lab. Each role's page lists what we score for that role.
You do a small piece of the actual job, on realistic material, the way you would on a normal day.
We care how you reason, what you prioritise and what you check, not whether you remember an answer.
Use the tools you would use at work. You own what you submit, so we look at how well you check and steer them.
Short notes on what you did, what you'd do next and what you're unsure of. Plain English beats polish.
Everyone applying for a role gets the same assessment and is scored against the same written criteria.
One sitting, at a time you choose before your deadline. The clock only starts when you press Start.
