I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Flock Safety in Feb 2026
Interview
The interview process was incredibly smooth. 5 rounds -- recruiter screen, HM, technical, interview loop with bar raiser, hardware engineer, and senior engineer on the team, then a final round with the director of engineering.
I was asked about my technical experience and background, various technical questions related to embedded firmware concepts.
Process took a few weeks since I had a 1 week work trip in the middle of it. I found out within 1 business day after each round if I was passed on to the next round. Everyone was highly talented, humble, and friendly. Ultimately accepted offer, seems like a great team to work with.

Question 1
As a firmware engineer, how would you work with a hardware engineer to design a keyboard?
It was quite a long interview process at five rounds in total. All interviewers were welcoming and kind. I did not get an offer and did not get a helpful explanation of why
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Flock Safety (Atlanta, GA) in Nov 2025
Interview
The overall process took about 2–3 weeks. The recruiter was quick to respond, kind, and very helpful throughout. There were five stages: a recruiter screen, hiring manager interview, technical interview, panel interview, and a final round with two VP interviews. Everyone I met was friendly and professional. The technical interview wasn’t a typical LeetCode-style test. It focused on realistic, job-related problem-solving, which I really appreciated.
