Process
The interview process was entirely remote and consisted of about three rounds:
A phone screen with the recruiter, a code challenge to complete, along with interviews with various members of the engineering team, and then an interview with non-technical employees from other parts of the organization.
The process as a whole took about two weeks to complete and wasn't too stressful.
