Staff Software Engineer, Platform Interview Experience - San Francisco, California

Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

Shared screen presentation of a developed software product. No actual platform, programming, or language questions were asked in the one-hour meeting.

It seems they are predominantly looking for culture fit. There appear to be issues regarding work/life balance if you read reviews. It's a startup on round F, so that's par for their course. The pay is at the high end of the scale. The interviewer was pretty young and inexperienced and didn't fully understand the value of the presented product in relation to what it could provide, given his lack of enthusiasm and fundamental questions. If you are over 40, I would pass on this one. I suspect there are some maturity issues going on with this organization.
