Please describe the interview / hiring process.
The interview process began with a HackerRank assessment that was notably challenging and required strong problem-solving skills. This was followed by a 30-minute HR interview focused on general behavioral questions and assessing overall fit.

Candidates who progressed were shortlisted for what appeared to be the final round. In this stage, I was asked to present one of my projects to two engineers. The discussion went in depth, covering the system architecture, design decisions, underlying mechanisms, and broader software engineering considerations related to the project. The conversation was detailed and technical, with a strong emphasis on understanding both high-level structure and low-level implementation choices.
