Arista is growing really quickly, which means there are always new and interesting problems to solve. The engineering team is very good, and management is committed to solving problems the right way (no quick hacks to get a feature out, use automation for building and testing). There is very minimal management, and engineers are encouraged to lead and complete their own projects.
Quick growth means Arista has lost most of its start-up feel, as much as management is fighting that. There is some tendency to see engineering as a sunk cost, and everything else as expensive.
Keep it up. Keep hammering testing, doing things right, and personal responsibility.
Invest in resources that make engineering more efficient.
I received the initial interview offer fairly quickly after submitting my resume at a career fair. The first technical interview was straightforward, presenting a medium-difficulty question. It required a solid understanding of the material, and the
This was for a new grad position. The process involved a phone screen with basic technical questions. This was followed by a phone interview coding test where you SSH into the interviewer's laptop and solve a few coding problems (around LeetCode eas
The interview is conducted over the phone. I need to access their remote server using SSH and answer prepared questions. The interview lasts for an hour. I also need to implement an algorithm using Java.
