The technical screen included a coding challenge that involved writing a script to generate the first n elements of the Fibonacci sequence, as well as solving a classic two-sum problem: given an array of integers and a target value, return the indices of the two numbers that add up to the target, with the constraint that each input has exactly one solution and elements cannot be reused. In addition to the coding tasks, the interview included statistical questions, specifically on mixed-effects models and Bayes’ theorem, to assess both applied programming skills and foundational statistical knowledge.
