Rigorous, quick follow up questions, first principle and fundamental grilling. Many conceptual scenarios. Process goes for roughly 5-6 rounds, ending with a presentation onsite. Recruiter first round, then speaking with various members of the team.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at SpaceX (Brownsville, TX) in Feb 2026
Interview
In person interview at my university with an engineer who was on campus for a recruiting visit. Asked me to talk about a project from my resume, and then asked me three technical questions.
First interview, ended up being all technical aside from the intro contrary to what the recruiter said in his email. Contained fluids and design questions. Did not have any behavioral questions and ended it off with discussing a project of my own.
