Entrevista
The process was fast and lots of fun. First interview was through skype with a member of the talent acquisition team, questions were about life and high school and family in general, purely character interview. Second was with a developer, also through skype, went through some of my open source projects and gave me some TDD tips, but didn't go deep. Last interview was also a skype one, this time with a lead developer and we discussed my projects in more depth, talked about scalability, database optimization, TDD....Overall interviews were like conversations between two developers and they want to see how comfortable you are with the most recent technologies and techniques out there.

Pregunta 1
Your project went viral and you got a lot of users, what's the problem now and how can you manage it?
The interview was intense and definitely exceeded my expectations. The technical rounds were particularly challenging, but I felt prepared. One of the system design questions was about creating a webhook delivery system with various complexities, and I was relieved because I had explored that exact topic on PracHub just days before. After tackling some coding problems, I faced some behavioral questions that tested my thought process. Overall, the experience was demanding, but I was thrilled to receive an offer, which I happily accepted.

Design a webhook delivery system that retries on failure with exponential backoff. Cover idempotency, ordering guarantees, dead-letter queues, and how you'd handle a downstream consumer that's been offline for hours.

Interview process went quickly. The recruiter was very responsive and nice, and made the whole experience 10 times better. The interviewers did not ask impossible questions and focused more on the thought process than the correct answer.

The first 2 interviews were LeetCode-like questions. Not directly from leetcode, but if you know your data structures you'll be good. 3rd interview I had to prep a design document and share it and they asked questions about the decisions that were made and the rationale behind it.
