Technical Coding
I went through two rounds focused on algorithms. Each one kicked off with some questions about my resume, followed by technical questions on topics like K8s and Kafka. Then, we tackled two data structures and algorithms problems. The first problem was medium difficulty, and the second was harder, involving things like DAGs and priority queues.

It started with a HackerRank test, then there were 3 technical interviews and a scenario based interview. The whole process took about a month. They were pretty chill about scheduling and nobody was late, and everyone was really nice and smart.

Coding
So, the first thing they did was send me this take-home assignment, which was basically a Hackerrank coding test. It took about 90 minutes to complete. I actually got the maximum score on all three questions they gave me, but they didn't even bother getting back to me. No rejection email, nothing. Honestly, if you're not desperate for time, I'd say just skip this one.
Confirmed questions3 questions
- The initial question involved creating a SQL query that utilized sub-queries, date ranges, joins, and filtering.
- The second question required writing code to make HTTP requests to a specified endpoint, retrieve JSON data, and then parse and filter that data.
- The third question was a challenging LeetCode-style problem focused on binary search and identifying a maximum value.
