I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Rubrik (Palo Alto, CA) in Nov 2025
Interview
I got referred in so the recruiter sent me directly to the first technical round on algorithms. I was given one leetcode-style problem which I was supposed to solve with an interviewer on call for 45 minutes, and there was no system design involved. Unfortunately I didn't make it past this round... they gave me a fairly tricky medium which I hadn't seen before.

Interview
Had an initial screening round, which was very chill. The recruiter asked basic experience related questions. The second round was a coding round were I was required to code a memory management distributed system, which was pretty hard.
