Entrevista
A recruiter reached out to me and we discussed the position and details of what they were looking for. I delayed the start of the process for a month and half because I wanted to prepare more. Once I reached back out it took about a month and a half to complete the process. An hour long interview with a hiring manager, 3 technical interviews over Zoom, then I flew out to SF and interviewed with 5 more people. After that I had a call with David since he was in Europe at the time.
It was a much longer interview process than the two other companies I received offers from. This was one of the factors that lead me to accept their offer, as I felt very comfortable about the types of people I would be working with and the product I would be working on. I was able to speak with individuals holding many different roles, and I thoroughly enjoyed every conversation.

Technical questions were like others have said - if you're comfortable with working through Leetcode style questions you will do well.

I received a quick response based on my resume for an interview. The technical pre-screen was five very simple questions which I’m sure I answered correctly. The day after I received some canned response that I answered some of the questions incorrectly and they would not proceed. I believe it was due to my initial responses to commuting to the 2nd most crime ridden city in California 3x a week. Lucky for Mrs Midwest she’s grandfathered in to remote work. I would not have accepted if offered regardless, salary and benefits are well below market.

Call with recruiter (7/8), which went well, got an email with next steps, I replied. Silence. I replied again on 7/14. Silence. Come 7/26 I get an email saying the position had been filled. So nice to be ghosted after such a positive phone call.

The interview and offer process was quick. There were three pretty informal behavioral interviews, a system design interview, and a basic technical question that could be extended.
Everyone was quite friendly and willing to answer questions. The interviews with director and VP showed they were pretty technical which was fantastic!
The recruiters seemed very busy because I was interacting with three people. They couldn't match another offer I had and seemed to have little wiggle room with comp/title/perks like WFH.
