Software Engineer
Two rounds with a software engineer from the team. LeetCode questions around medium difficulty. Asked about background as well as gave context of the job. Smooth process with a quick turnaround; HR was responsive.

First, you apply and get an OA. If you score well enough (you don't need a perfect score), then you get the interview, where they give you really hard questions. It depends on the interviewer, but someone I knew got an easy string question.

LeetCode + system design. Nothing unusual. LeetCode questions can be found on Blind 75 and standard system design questions. The interviewer will provide hints for LeetCode questions. I went through a total of 4 rounds.
