Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience - Spain
Process
My process consisted of several pair programming sessions with different engineers to solve not very complicated problems in a language of my choice.
There were also a couple of cultural interviews.

Cada sesión de pair-programming era con un interlocutor diferente y el problema a resolver era relativamente sencillo.
Una de las charlas culturales consistía en explicar la historia de tu vida profesional, las decisiones que has ido tomando, tus motivaciones, etc.

Shopify Work Experiences
- 2.0Avoid if you hate politicsSenior Software Engineer • Former EmployeeToronto, Ontario, CanadaNovember 1, 2025Pros: Fast-paced, you learn a lot about doing more with less and scaling monolithic applications, which is a transferable skill to other companies.Cons: Shopify nowadays has a big issue regarding politics. Most orgs are fighting for budget and trying to impress Tobi. When something goes wrong, upper management goes into a firing spree, trying to find scapegoats. If you do not enjoy working 12-14 hour days or working a few weekends every month, chances are you are not going to enjoy working here.
