The web development that happens is typically for:
* Systems that analyze flight or test data
* Systems that enable manufacturing, supply chain, or other supporting business activities
* Systems that are considered to be "customer experience" related
* Infrastructure systems that support the other software engineering teams
Our hiring process is straightforward. The dev teams review resumes for a fit based on experience and skillset. Next comes a phone screen where we'll ask a series of basic programming questions. If you're in the Seattle area we skip the phone screen and invite you in for a tour and ask you the same questions in-person. Next we do a full interview, which occurs on-site at our headquarters and typically lasts most of the day. You'll interview with multiple software engineers from different teams. The questions you get asked will be deeply technical and are usually real world problems we have had to solve.
- djellybeans 9y agoMost of my more recent experience has been in web agencies, and SaaS. For SaaS in particular CPQ software to help business clients quote product prices for many arbitrary configurations. I don't have as much experience with infrastructure in the large scale, however. I also had a short contract job as a game developer so maybe that can be useful for applications that require real-time performance. I live in the Midwest. I know that with Amazon they had offered me a paid round-trip flight from my city to go to their final round interview. I declined only for personal things to handle at the time. If I ever get to that point with Blue Origin, would that company be able to do the same?
- thematt 9y agoAbsolutely, we pay for travel expenses to come interview with us.
