Interview & Career
Coding interviews and growing as a senior engineer.
This hub is the career side of the work: how to approach coding interviews from a senior engineer’s point of view, the array, hashing, two-pointer, and sliding-window patterns that keep coming up, and what actually changes as you move into senior and lead roles.
The interview material pairs naturally with the System Design hub, which covers the design-round half of the loop.
Frequently asked questions
What coding-interview patterns do these guides cover?
The recurring ones — arrays and hashing, two pointers, and sliding window — explained from a senior engineer’s point of view, with the reasoning for when each pattern applies rather than memorized templates.
Is this only about interviews, or about the career too?
Both. Alongside interview preparation, the material covers what actually changes as you move into senior and lead roles — scope, ownership, and how technical decisions get made.
