Stripe Software Engineer interview experience

It was one of those conversations where the topic sounded narrow, but I had to reason clearly about how headers behave and how you’d approach the problem. The tone was practical rather than abstract, and it set the expectation that the rest of the process would be similarly concrete. I didn’t end up moving forward, but the screen itself was straightforward enough that the main takeaway for me was how much the discussion depended on thinking out loud and staying precise.
