I was interviewed for their Az Compute Team in Feb'2025
Location : Noida/Bangalore/Hyderabad India

Round1 : ( 1 hour) [ The interviewer was a very experienced folk from their Azure teams ]

  1. Describe the acrchitecture of any one of your recent project.
  2. Describe 1 challenge related to scalability, performance that you solved which you find worth mentioning
  3. Why did you use AWS cloud in your project ?
  4. How did you make sure the system works with increasing traffic. By this time a good 15-20 minutes had passed.
  5. He shared codility link ( not sure which site) for a coding question
    Coding question : Given a string we need to reverse the string in 2 ways and print :
    String input : "How are you"
    output (1) - woH era uoy https://leetcode.com/problems/reverse-words-in-a-string-iii/description/
    output (2) - you are How https://leetcode.com/problems/reverse-words-in-a-string-ii/description/
    Basically he asked me 2 questions combined in one.
    I left some silly mistakes in the code due to which it took me a lot of time to debug and fix the result. He did give me around 8 minutes extra, Still, I didn't get time to write solution to get the second string result.

Round 2 : [ The interviewer seemed to be and SDE1 or 2, didn't get any time for intro]

  1. Coding question : https://leetcode.com/problems/regular-expression-matching/description/
  2. Give me a LLD for elevator system with N elevators and M floors. Keep your focus on the classes and their components rather than the algorithm.

Since I didn't answer the coding questions right in both the rounds, I didn't get to appear for subsequent rounds.
