Backend Software Engineer Interview Questions

2,345 backend software engineer interview questions shared by candidates

Quite simple algorithmic questions on the first round. The second round is a bit trickier because you have to take your hometask and change it in a way that is suggested by the interviewer. And obviously there's an element of luck in how much your solution will be extendable in exactly the required direction. I wasn't very lucky in this aspect and barely finished the task in time, but passed. System design is all focused on a particular business feature and doesn't require designing the whole system and collecting a lot of requirements, pretty simple by structure.
