Surprisingly challenging, the interview had me on my toes more than I expected. It included a couple of technical rounds where I had to implement an LRU cache and tackle a problem involving course prerequisite ordering. The final round was a bit intense, focusing on maximizing container area trapped between vertical lines. Interestingly, I had gone over a similar architecture design on PracHub just days prior, which really helped me during the discussions. Overall, an engaging experience, and I ultimately accepted their offer.

1 technical phone screen covering basic networking and data structures, followed by a 4-round onsite loop focused heavily on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) scale challenges. The rounds were split between low-level system execution, multi-tenant cloud architecture, and standard relational/non-relational database trade-offs. The interviewers kept drilling into network virtualization, hypervisors, and storage layers.
To prep, I needed to brush up on high-throughput cloud networking patterns and storage engine internals. I utilized Apex Interviewer to simulate full cloud infrastructure design problems.
