Sensor Engineer Interview Experience - Cupertino, California

February 19, 2026
Positive ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months.

  • Recruiter screening
  • Hiring manager screening
  • Final round virtual onsite

Brief questions on my experience for every round. The majority of the role was systems-based and technical screening, along with a lot of "how would you test X product or Y sensor, or Z sensor with obscure shapes, obscure conditions."

Questions

How would you test and read a capacitive sensor?

(Intended to be a very open-ended question to see how specific you get or what follow-ups you ask.)
