Software Engineer Interview Experience - San Francisco, California
Process
I took an OA for Stripe in 2023. It was different from LeetCode-style problems, consisting primarily of more class-based design. One problem kept building on the other, and it also included refactoring some of the original code to accommodate additional functionality as the OA progressed. It was definitely very time-constrained.
Questions
It was a question around security for payments.
