      Senior Systems Software Engineer, Cellular Validation Interview

      16 Apr 2023
      Anonymous interview candidate
      San Francisco, CA
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Humane (CA) (San Francisco, CA) in Apr 2023

      Interview

      1st round - recruiter - check your interest, brief about the company, etc (45 mins) 2nd round - hiring manager - check technical capabilities (1 hr) 3rd round - 6 people interviewers - (45 mins/2) __ 2 - software engineers __ 1 - wifi bt engineer __ 1 - rf design engineer __ 1 - wireless system engineer __ 1 - Engineering Program Manager -- interviewers were ex-apple, ex-meta employees. -- I felt like some interviewers did not represent Humane culture and showed hung over of the faang culture. (the reason I say this I love watching and reading about the founders, their vision, their soft skills, their passion, their humility)

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      # Questions asked by EPM (appeared friendly) - Tell me about a project you were passionate about - How will you communicate differently to a Sales person - Did you ever analyze data and make an impact on business decisions. Explain. - A product is to be launched with x number of features, you realize that you won’t be able to finish testing all the features, what will you do? - (When I asked how has been her experience at Humane, she over-dramatically told me that she had been working there for a month and it's a lot of work, "a lot of work". who says that to a candidate appearing for interview. either she was being honest, or maybe she did not want me to join) # Questions asked by cellular Software Engineers (senior - friendly, junior - unfriendly) - cellular protocol related - Low data throughput debug steps, NDI, RV - Log post processing for failures - Registration Call Flow - advantages of different SCS in 5G - design a test plan for a device - (interviewer was young and almost unfriendly when I asked clarifying questions.) # Questions asked by wifi/ bt engineer (friendly) - Which Cellular band does Wi-Fi 2.4 GHz interfere with? - Given a device (a phone or similar device) come up with broad categories of test plan. - Telemetry for devices, which parameters you will check? # Questions asked by rf hardware design engineer (soft spoken) - Functional blocks of RFFE - If you find a test is failing how will you debug before reaching out to the equipment vendor? (he was looking for a step by step sequential answer) # Questions asked by wireless system engineer (unwelcoming) - How does the traffic flow when you stream a video from youtube - What will you do if phone heats up - (kept emphasizing "There’s no I, there’s only WE here" for no reason. he appeared as unwelcoming) # Recruiter got back to me - - there was no problem with your interview, just that we found someone better aligned for this role. - This role involves communication with other department and we want someone better at that. - recruiter calls or responds (does not respond) on his own time
