I interviewed for the Software Engineer role and it felt difficult and very DSA/computer-networks-heavy, with questions that dug into how code works.

Technical + behavioral interview (single round) — In a 45-minute technical+behavioral format, I was grilled on strong fundamentals like DSA and computer networks, plus detailed questions about the “inside the code” behavior.
In-depth implementation and stack justification — I had to explain why I chose a specific tech stack, what functions certain parts of code perform, and why I implemented things the way I did. Outcome: I didn’t move forward; the takeaway is that they expect you to reason through code mechanics and architecture choices, not just high-level summaries.
