I started with an HR recruiter screen where we talked through my background, the projects I’d worked on, and the usual details like tech stack, availability, and expectations.

A little while later I moved into technical rounds. The first one leaned heavily on SQL and fundamentals, with questions around joins, window functions, aggregations, and data-cleaning style tasks like removing duplicates and pulling specific rankings from a table. It also dipped into Python and PySpark basics, so I had to explain my approach while working through the logic.

The next technical discussion went deeper into data engineering topics. I walked through how I’d designed pipelines and how I’d thought about ETL/ELT, batch versus streaming, and storage/compute choices like data lakes
