After a quick pre-screening call with the recruiter, I had two more rounds with the hiring team. Each of those interviews lasted about an hour and really gave me a good feel for the company culture, which seemed super friendly. The recruiter got back to me with an offer pretty fast.

I applied online and got a phone interview in about 3-4 weeks. Then I had an in-person interview at their headquarters in Santa Ana. The entire interview was 1.5 hours long, split into three 30-minute interviews with three people I'd be working with. The interviews were good; they weren't stressful and they seemed genuinely interested in learning about me. Most questions were about technical skills or past experiences, with a few behavioral ones.
