      Senior Embedded Software Engineer Interview

      8 May 2020
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Poway, CA
      Declined offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at General Atomics (Poway, CA) in Mar 2020

      Interview

      Initial call with HR, followed by a ~1hr call with the hiring manager. After that an onsite interview that was about 3 hours long. Overall a great interview experience, they were very welcoming and I felt that all of their questions were great without any of the typical interview "fluff" questions. Unfortunately at the time had to turn them down, but a great interview experience!

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Expect detailed questions about embedded systems, syntax, and variables. I think they were great questions for what the position expected, so I won't give them away on here, but if you are strong in your embedded skills you will be great. There was also a live programming exercise that wasn't too difficult.
