Technical Round 1

We don't ask you to invert a binary tree on a whiteboard . We assess your thought process and coding dexterity in increasing levels of difficulty, but only for problems that are relevant in the real world.

Technical Round 2 (with Team Lead)

The relative complexity increases, this round looks at how you solve problems in a more challenging environment and your ability to think in a more abstract way while being able to consider the performance ramifications of your solution.

Founders' Round

Our founders will get to know your background and evaluate whether you are a good fit for our culture during a casual chat. We are very particular about hiring the best candidates that have the right personality & work ethic to thrive in a fast-paced startup.
