Senior Android Engineer Interview Experience - San Francisco, California

September 1, 2025
Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

The usual recruiter screening, with advice around the upcoming interview questions (it's LeetCode all the way down).

There's the phone screen, which was a basic LeetCode question. Then there was the hiring manager interview (soft skills), then an API Systems question (here's where they'll ask some Android high-level stuff), and finally (where I messed up) a more advanced LeetCode question.

I didn't practice any LeetCode going into this interview, not really a proponent for it regarding a senior IC role. So it's on me for not being prepared for it, but if you practice your data structures and know your Kotlin, this should be a breeze.

Questions

Given a sorted list of numbers between 1-99, print out the numbers missing in a certain format.

Build a notifications screen API.

Build a shopping cart with items and handle various coupon types that can only apply to a specific item type once. Also handle coupon logic for % off vs. exact $ off. Also consider that applying a coupon for PB&J means that a coupon for peanut butter specifically should be ignored.
