Process

I applied to the job posting on LinkedIn and received an email the next day to set up a technical screen.

It was a typical senior-level software engineering interview process, involving a technical phone screen followed by on-site technical, design, and behavioral rounds lasting 4 to 5 hours.

Since I was local to San Diego, the process went pretty quickly and smoothly. All of the interviewers seemed competent and fun to work with at first impression.

Questions

Study algorithms, system design, and all standard interview questions.

More importantly, be yourself. You will need to be able to relate situations to past experiences you might have and then provide your answers accordingly, especially if you are interviewing for staff-level or leadership roles.
