Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Cruise (San Francisco, CA) nel mese di giu 2017
Colloquio
Applied online, got a call from HR, then a technical phone interview and one week later an on-site interview.
I liked the Cruise team, both HR and engineers, and liked their location in San Francisco (having spent most of my life in another much larger and bustling city and now living in Silicon Valley's suburbia). The engineers who interviewed me were highly skilled and enthusiastic. I would have accepted their offer if it weren't for another offer (also in the autonomous driving space) that aligned better with my long-term career goals. It was a tough choice.

Colloquio
The interview process consisted of an initial recruiter screen followed by a technical phone interview focused on data structures and problem-solving in Python. The onsite loop included 4 rounds: one coding round (medium LeetCode-style problem), one system design round focused on building a scalable ML data processing pipeline, one backend/API design round, and one behavioral round. Interviewers emphasized real-world problem solving, tradeoffs, and communication. Overall, the process was structured and aligned with large-scale distributed systems and ML infrastructure.
