Entrevista
They have a pretty standard software engineering interview process; intro call, a technical interview, a product and culture fit interview. Well organized overall. Scheduling the conversations were slow and required at least one reschedule.

There was a series of 6 interviews, two of which were technicals, with the remainder being culture fit interviews with the direct manager, prospective team members, cross functional teams, and VP of engineering.

One of the technical screens involved a system design interview where I penciled out the architecture given a business need prompt. The other was a code review exercise. Culture fit questions involved company values, questions about diversity, and things about me and my background to get a feel for my personality.
Interview process consisted of:
1. Phone screening with recruiter
2. Interview with team manager
3. Interview with two dev leads(?) on soft skills-type questions
4. Interview with designer regarding process, working with product, collaboration, etc.
5. Quasi-technical interview with an engineer
6. System design interview
7. Discussion with head of engineering
This interview was unusual in that I only met the team lead and the designer working with the team; all other interviews were with members of other teams.

For part 5, the interview with an engineer, I was asked about my approach to problem solving, tackling tickets, about bugs I had solved in the past, some questions about scalability, availability, and so on.
For part 6, I was presented with a system challenge related to a poor internet connection and asked to solve it. General sys design interview prep was helpful.
It started with a phone convo with a recruiter type person. The call was friendly and informative. I then had a call with the hiring manager, which was also a good call / very friendly. The technical questions were basic, but I think reasonable enough to make anyone think, yet not ridiculously difficult.
