Had an initial screen with a recruiter. He described the teams that are hiring and what they look for as well as outlining the rest of the process. It sounded like a good fit but they didn’t think they had any remote opportunities.
The process is intense and highly focused on practical engineering rather than just theoretical algorithms. After the initial recruiter screen and a technical phone screen, there was a heavy emphasis on a "Learning Sample" or a take-home style project that you then have to defend in a deep-dive session. They want to see how you handle real-world system bottlenecks, concurrency, and large-scale data ingestion.
