The interview experience was not great. It felt like they didn't respect my time because the interviews were too short, which is not standard. They had microphone issues. The process wasn't clear, and it was sequential 1:1 interviews, which isn't as fair as a panel. They were really pushing for in-person work but offering below-market salary for the Bay Area with no relocation, which just seemed like a fear of remote work. The people were rude and the process was crappy, even though the product is awesome and the opportunity sounds great.

Technical Behavioral
The interview process felt disorganized and dragged on. Since they reached out to me, after the first phone screen, I had to chase them for every next step and they missed their own timelines. The office was super loud, a mix of industrial noise and open office chatter, felt like you needed hearing protection and a hard hat. The interview 'room' was basically a stuffy, unventilated box. I seriously thought I'd been ghosted after the on-site because I heard nothing for over two weeks, even after reaching out. Then, they finally scheduled a call and gave me a verbal offer, but it was way below market rate for a startup at that stage. They said they'd see what they could do and get back to me in a few days, but that was four weeks ago.

I went through a bunch of interview rounds, talking to different teams. They really dug into whether I was a good cultural and technical fit. I think I talked to about 7 or 8 people in total to get through all the interview stages.

Coding Technical Behavioral
This role on the Sensor Fusion team had 3 interview rounds. First up was a live coding session, which was pretty straightforward, and the interviewer was helpful if you got stuck. Next, you talked with the Software Architect. This part felt like it was for experienced engineers, focusing on memory management and optimizing STL initializations to save memory. The final round was more of a chat about your projects, needing a solid grasp of basics like handling raw time series data (FTs, etc.). My experience wasn't great with the last two rounds because I felt misled; I was expecting questions about sensor basics and debugging, and thought the chat with the architect would be more informal, which was a big mistake.
