Me postulé en línea. El proceso tomó 3 meses. Acudí a una entrevista en Rivian en sep 2025
Entrevista
i had total of 4 rounds of coding and 2 system designs
i struggled with 1 coding round, i wrote the solution but it didn't pass all the test cases, i guess it was considered as failure, which i can understand
they conducted additional round of coding and i solved the problem even with the follow up question.
Rivian decided to give me down level offer which is 50% of the salary that i was getting from one of faang company.
very disappointing.
Recruiter told me their bar is so high (but not the salary) and i am not good enough for senior role.
7 rounds of Interviews
Mix of HR, Resume Deep Dives, System Design and Coding interviews (C++, CUDA, Python , Pytorch)
System Design Focus on autonomous driving for higher Levels of autonomy
5 rounds of interviews. HR, HM, Live Coding, System design, Cross functional. Lasts about a week or two in total. All were done online. All in all a good experience.
