Summary

I interviewed at TripFactory for a Lead Engineer role, discussing project scaling, Kafka considerations, and designing an outstation cab service. The first round was positive, but the second round was cancelled, and the position was put on hold.

Full Experience

I interviewed at TripFactory last year.

Round 1: It was taken by manager. General discussion on my projects. How would you scale this, what chanllenges did you face etc. Kafka scaling considerations for both producer and consumer

I had worked on a cabs project a few years ago so asked overall design of outstation cabs service. Allocation to drivers and stuff.

Got positive response.

Round 2 scheduled but couldn't happen due to the panel's availability issue.

Position put on hold thereafter - such a bummer.
