The job post says it's remote, but the position is actually hybrid. The salary range listed on the job post is also a bit more broad than I would've liked.

- Employee Referral - Recruiter Screen - Engineering Manager Chat - Coding Challenge (I spent about 10 hr but I was prob more nitpicky than I needed to be) - Onsite (3.75 hr total, 4 interviews + 1 wrap-up) - Offer - Placement into teams is pretty flexible and you can move around / try out teams after joining Honestly, I had a great experience with LD, and LD moves really fast! Apart from waiting for the initial recruiter screen which took maybe 2 weeks, everything else had a 1 business day turnaround. They were willing to schedule the onsite the day after my coding challenge submission in order to meet an offer deadline I had for another company, which was super nice and flexible of them and their engineers! I really liked the coding challenge, I thought it was reasonable to expect BE engineers to know how to build microservices with minimal guidance and I learned a good deal from it. I spent 10 hours because I picked a language and framework I didn't use for work (Python) so I probably could have spent less time if I used a framework I knew. Onsite: - 45 min review your microservice and extend it - 30 min culture and values - 45 min system design - 45 min problem solving (algorithmic problem) - 30 min manager wrap-up LD is very profitable and has happy engineers and a great engineering culture (described in their values page) that I personally vibed with - I would have chosen them if not for a competing offer where I really liked the team match in the other company.
