So I had three rounds for this role. First was a phone call, like a background check, lasted about 45 minutes. We chatted about my research on sensor networks, the company's vibe, and a bit about how I like to work and team sizes. Then, I had a tech interview with the hiring manager, which went for about an hour. The last one was a 4-hour marathon with the co-founder and CTO, which was pretty wild! It had four parts, covering tech, ML, and more.
