Started with a 30 min screening call. Then had a 1h tech interview that involved a code review (look at a merge request, find issues and suggest fixes), some Go questions, and a live coding task where I had to implement a worker pool in Go. Finally, a 1h system design interview where the task was to design Twitter.
