I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Oracle (Nashville, TN)
Interview
Standard coding screen followed by loop rounds.
Loop rounds -
1. System design - focused on the infra aspect more
2. Behavioral - turned into technical quickly and did some white boarding to explain how I cracked a problem.
3. Bartender - as they are all from platform team, most of their questions were targeted for infra position and that confused me.
Bias for action seemed very important for them than any other principle.
Coding - another leetcode medium and was easy to solve.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
System design - Youtube using barebones infra instead of ootb services
The interviews were mostly medium level leetcode questions. Takes a lot longer than you would expect. About 3 months from beginning to end. The offer stage and background stage take the longest
I applied through other source. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Oracle (Bengaluru) in Dec 2025
