Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

The interview process was very lightweight.

I had an introductory call with a recruiter, after which I received a take-home assignment. It wasn't time-limited, but I spent about 10 hours working on it.

After submitting the assignment, I had a follow-up call with the hiring manager, which included a discussion about the project. The second part of the interview was focused on system design, but it lasted no more than 20 minutes.

Questions

I had a take-home assignment that involved building a small proxy server to manage rate limits.

The second interview was a system design discussion with the hiring manager. The questions focused on their platform and how I would design it if I were building it from scratch.
