Initial screening application form with a motivational fit question and several checkbox radio screening questions, as well as CV/resume upload. They say they value the motivational fit very highly and it's important to write a lot for that section

7 stages: - codesignal take home: build a key value file system, time constraints are tough but it’s not too hard - recruiter call: just explains the process and asks some experience questions - live coding interview: async web crawler, you’re expected to discuss good async patterns live but start small with a synchronous solution - systems design interview: given a function that returns tokens for an LLM system, make it scale to 100,000 requests a second. Expect to calculate systems throughput, understand distributed latency, and be careful to not over-engineer - design document review: not sure, I got rejected - recruiter call again: framed as “career goals” - culture fit interview
