Process
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks.
The screening interview is 45 minutes with a recruiting team member. There were lots of questions about past experience, but the recruiter was unable to answer basic questions about the role — so it is not exactly clear how they would even evaluate them.
Having experienced technical hires do long calls with non-technical recruiters remains the oddest process in existence. Either do a friendly introduction and move to the real process, or have the first call be with an actual person with minimal knowledge of the role.

Hinge Health Work Experiences
- 3.0Hiring & Firing CultureStaff Engineer • Former EmployeeBengaluruAugust 1, 2025Pros: Offers good learning opportunities and exposure to various skills. Free food provided, which is a nice perk.Cons: The company follows an unstable hiring and firing culture — employees can be let go at any time without much notice. Long and exhausting working hours are common, with poor work-life balance. Consider joining only if you don’t have other offers. If you do, it’s better to choose a company with a more stable and employee-friendly culture.
