Interview
I found the selection process to be structured and focused on leadership as much as technical proficiency. The initial interview round covered my experience with software architecture, cloud services, and coding best practices. There were specific questions about designing scalable systems, which gave me insight into the kind of projects they are working on. The next round was more strategic, focusing on my ability to lead development teams, manage cross-functional projects, and ensure timely delivery under tight deadlines. They wanted to make sure I could mentor a team while also being hands-on with the codebase.
