Candidatei-me online. O processo levou 4 semanas. Fui entrevistado pela Aurora Innovation (Mountain View, CA) em mai. de 2025
Entrevista
I had a call with the recruiter, then a technical discussion with the hiring manager. There was no coding involved, we just discussed my experience. Then I had a technical round (Data Structures/Algorithms style coding question), it wasn't too hard. Then I had four rounds of virtual onsite: the first was a behavioral interview with the hiring manager, the second was a technical interview where we discussed snippets of Python code, the third was systems design, and the last one was a Leetcode-style question in JavaScript. They told me the main goal of the coding interviews are to have a productive discussion about the code, that is more important than solving the problem. Overall the interview questions were not hard at all.

Process was recruiter screen → 60 min C++ technical interview.
The recruiter screen was mostly background discussion and role fit. They were specifically interested in experience with computer vision, calibration, sensor systems, and C++.
The technical round focused heavily on C++ fundamentals rather than LeetCode-style trick questions. Topics included pointers/references, stack vs heap allocation, memory management, STL usage, debugging thought process.

It was a very straightforward process which involved classic technical conversation/questions, system design, and a coding section. Overall, the folks I talked to seemed smart and capable and the questions were valid for the role. I applied online, interviewed with their recruiter very shortly after and the rest of the interviews played out pretty quickly after. There was a bit of disorganization about how the process was unfolding on their end but we figured it out.

Recruiter screen, then coding screen on coderpad.io. Couldn't solve their dsa question in time in 45 minutes, so no offer. If I had focused and done all the problems in the Neetcode 150, I would've passed, so this is my fault.
