New York, NYPosted Mar 2026 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

My process felt straightforward from the start: I had a recruiter call to discuss the role and my background, then a hiring manager interview that focused on my resume and projects.

We spent time on what interested me about the company and the kinds of challenges I’d handled before.

After that, the technical portion ran in two long blocks. I did a one-hour code review interview, followed by a one-hour system design interview. Those sessions were presented as the main depth areas of the loop, and the whole arc was fairly concise—recruiter and then hiring manager, then deep technical evaluation across code review and system design.
