We'll dive into your previous track record and the expertise you're eager to bring, but also collaborate together with the product team to simulate the real job as close as possible. After a quick informal chat with the CTO our interview is composed of 4 rounds: 1. Screening call with two people from the product team (30-45 min, video call) 2. A pair programming session with two engineers, where you are in the driver seat. You'll work in the Payflip codebase, on a real problem not solving a shady algorithm problem. (1h, video call + remote coding) 3. You'll be presented a product + architectural problem and we'll ask you to write a short proposal for a solution. This is the only in person interview and you'll present this to the team in the Brussels office. We immediately couple the next interview to this so you only have to visit the office once 4. In a final stage we'll be going into a behavioral interview where (together with a founder) we'll discuss your leadership vision, collaboration style and ambitions for the job at Payflip (45m, office)
