Three rounds of different online internviews (most likely due to covid as it was done a year ago). Algorithms theory, pair programming problems, general software theory questions. The interviewers are generally trying to be helpful and the atmosphere is relaxed, but of course your final role and compensation depends on your performance, so you still better come prepared with you standard run of the mill software engineer interview questions.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe your most interesting challenge you have faced as a developer and how did you and your team go around handling it.
1 technical phone screen covering basic networking and data structures, followed by a 4-round onsite loop focused heavily on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) scale challenges. The rounds were split between low-level system execution, multi-tenant cloud architecture, and standard relational/non-relational database trade-offs. The interviewers kept drilling into network virtualization, hypervisors, and storage layers.
To prep, I needed to brush up on high-throughput cloud networking patterns and storage engine internals. I utilized Apex Interviewer to simulate full cloud infrastructure design problems.

Question 1
Design a highly secure, multi-tenant virtual cloud network block storage migration system that allows live volume transfers between physical data centers without dropping active I/O operations.
Mostly coding question focused, and some talking about personal experience and terms. Some technical design, you could have chosen any language to complete the coding questions. Questions were simple technical concepts that person came up with at the moment.

Question 1
Something like searching in logs using maps and filter/find data
decent amount of DSA and System design were asked, and behavioral questions. so prepare leetcode level questions and good amount knowledge in sql, java and also mostly oracle sql. overall it was good
