Entrevista
I applied a different position but called for interview for embedded software engineer. I passed their home test (2.5hr) and then were called on for an onsite interview.
I think they just use the home test to verify if you can write code, nothing more than that.
In the email, it was mentioned I should check their products and get familiar with network techniques. I spent a few days on that. On the onsite interview, there is actually 1.5 hr coding test, with a couple of coding questions. There was nothing tricky in their coding test , all basic textbook algorithms (sorting, searching, linked list,.., pointer manipulation) but definitely needed muscle memory.
I was told my background was not a good fit at the very beginning of the interview. Then I got frustrated and performed pretty poorly during the interview process.

Coding assessment, then live coding assessment where they just watch you code, camera and mic on, and sits there silently. Once you are done, if you don't get the whole thing, they just say "it's a no" then drops the call.

A bunch (about 4) of leetcode style questions, Med-Hard difficulty
The HR representative initially contacted me by phone and explained the interview process. I was then given four coding questions, which were similar to a HackerRank-based test but slightly modified. Unfortunately, I didn’t pass that stage, so I don’t have any additional information to share.
