Process
There was no interviewing process. I was sent an email by an office manager, which was odd. That was simply unexpected, not title snobbery. The email instructed me to take a personality test. The test was timed and along the lines of your typical online "are you an introvert or extrovert" type quiz. At no point did I speak to anyone. After 10 days, I finally heard back and was told, based on the results of that quiz, I would not be proceeding forward.
Maybe there was more to the decision, and I would hope so, but I've never proceeded past the application phase with a company and still not spoken verbally with someone. To have the first interaction be "go take this personality test" and then be declined seemingly based on that was odd at best and slightly offensive.

A great place to work
Engineering Manager • Current Employee
Sydney, New South Wales, Australia
March 3, 2020
Pros: You will work with very smart, friendly, and humble people. No matter how smart you are, you will learn a lot from them.
There are many great perks (lunches, funded social clubs, technical and level-up allowance). There is a super-convenient office location (Sydney). There are regular surveys that allow upper management to detect issues in the organization, and they do put in real effort to fix them. It feels to me that Rokt becomes a better place to work every year.
Cons: Things change fast. If you like stability, this might not be your company.
Every couple of weeks, your team might have a different "number one priority". Some people call it "agility", some people call it "chaos".

High Impact, Great Culture, and Challenging Scale Problems
Senior Staff Engineer, Software • Current Employee
Sydney, New South Wales, Australia
November 25, 2025
Pros: Technical Challenge and Scale:
As a Senior Engineer, I've genuinely enjoyed the complexity of the problems we solve, particularly around performance optimization, front-end web security, and handling massive traffic volumes globally. The work is impactful, and you're encouraged to own features end-to-end.
Truly Empowered Teams:
Teams operate with high autonomy. We get to decide on the best technical approach and tooling to solve problems. Management trusts engineers, which fosters a sense of ownership and reduces unnecessary overhead.
Positive and Collaborative Culture:
The Sydney office has a fantastic atmosphere - friendly, highly collaborative, and driven. People are smart but humble. There's a strong emphasis on continuous learning and knowledge sharing across engineering teams.
Compensation and Benefits:
Rokt is highly competitive with other top tech companies in Sydney for both salary and equity. The office amenities and social events are excellent, creating a great place to be during the week.
Focus on Growth:
We use modern technologies and are always exploring better ways to build software. There is a clear growth path for ICs (Individual Contributors) who want to move into Principal roles or technical leadership.
Cons: Given the rapid global growth, there can occasionally be ambiguity around priorities between different global teams, which requires proactive communication to manage dependencies effectively.
Team structure also changes frequently, which can lead to some disruption.
