I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at eBay (Portland, OR) in Sep 2025
Interview
Two hour on-video technical interviews.
The first hour was working on a coding problem within the CodeSignal platform. It was a very fair question and tbh being rusty I kind of fell on my face on the spot.
The second hour was an infrastructure/design question mostly around data resources.

Interview
The interview process was pretty straightforward. The first round was with the hiring manager and a peer, and the second round was with the VP of the Detection & Enforcement Team.
The first round focused on behavioral and job-based questions, and we also discussed my background. I had a great connection with the interviewers — when you interview a lot, you can tell when it clicks!
The final round was more of a culture fit conversation. The VP was direct in his questions but also very approachable and kind. Overall, it was a very positive interview experience.
The position was offered on a hybrid model at eBay’s Blanchardstown HQ in Dublin, Ireland.
