Santa Clara, CAPosted May 2021 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I went through a fairly long Zoom loop that ended up feeling more like a deep technical conversation than a quick screening.

After the initial steps, I got pulled into five separate rounds, with one of them led by the hiring manager. Each session stayed focused on designing and reasoning through systems, and I kept getting pushed to explain my thinking rather than just name concepts.

The standout theme was async design. I was asked to design a circuit for signals crossing from one clock domain to another, which forced me to reason about the signal path and what would be needed when the timing isn’t aligned. The interviewers were engaged and asked follow-ups that kept expanding the scope of the problem.
