Solutions Architect Interview Experience - United States
Process
The interview process at Redis Labs was perfect. I found initial conversation from the recruiter to be relaxed and very open. We explored my background, strengths, and constraints (travel, location, etc). A few different roles were offered to me to consider. Discussions with the hiring manager and the team lead got into software design, database concepts, and working with customers.
There was also a technical assignment which required accessing some cloud instances, installing redis and redis enterprise and writing a coding solution using those resources. I ended up accepting a different role.

Redis Work Experiences
- 5.0Super smart people who aren't just in Silicon Valley makes Redis Labs a great company to work forSolutions Architect • Current EmployeeSan Francisco, CaliforniaMay 21, 2018Pros: As part of the Solutions Architect team (aka presales/postsales aka technical sales aka solution engineer), my team is all over the world and coming from a very diverse set of backgrounds. I feel challenged every day to get smarter so I can contribute to the conversation. On top of that, the in-memory-compute space is continuing to evolve as demands from IoT, ML, and mundane topics like customer experience, anti-counterfeit, supply chain diversion, etc continue to expand. Net net, it is exciting to be in the middle of all this.Cons: If you don't/can't work from one of the offices (Mountain View, London, Tel Aviv) you need to be self motivated and either comfortable working with people you can't see or be open to working with people you can't see.

- 4.0Supportive team and generous AI tools, but tough competitionSolutions Architect • Current EmployeeBengaluru, IndiaJune 16, 2026Pros: Nice people, good product and very liberal in terms of AI tools provided by the management: from Claude & Glean to Codex & Cursor, everyone gets access to best AI tools with very generous limits.Cons: Very unstable higher leadership, lots of changes! Sometimes it becomes extremely difficult to sell the product because of the tough competition from hyperscalers and our own OSS product, Also, the Redis Cloud platform has a lot of room to improve.
