Entretien
Applied online and had a very brief chat with the internal recruiter (why pagerduty, pay, what makes you happy at work). Schedule a phone interview with the lead and a coding challenge. The team lead was mostly talking about the role and mostly asked have you done this and that... The coding challenge required picking any programming language and solving a problem (and make it work on a given data set). The problem was the same that was mentioned here in this forum - find a pair that adds up to a 100 - thanks Glassdoor!
Few days after local HR reached out and scheduled another round. This time I had to install Putty, connect to a remote Linux server and find out why a system is slow. The troubleshooting took a while and the interiviewer seemed to be impatient and not very helpful. Next he asked me to connect to MySql, explore the DB schema and run a few sql queries (count rows that meet certain criteria, perform joins). Finally he asked me to start memcached as a daemon and to receive statistics from that process.
Initial hr call, a hiring manager call and then two technicals, a lot of behavioral questions . Unironically had a great time interviewing, which cannot be said for most companies these days.

Really quick and easy process. Started with a recruiter screen,, then had a 30 minute call with the hiring manager, then two hour-long technical interviews (live coding challenge (not LeetCode) and system design), and finally a 30-minute call with the senior manager over the whole team. Recruiter reached back out within a day of each interview to schedule the next step. Overall, the whole process took roughly three weeks and was really smooth and enjoyable the whole time.

Found the interview questions to be a typical experience, however my interviewer joined the interview noticably annoyed. They were quite unfriendly during the process and eager to end the interview. I knew within 5 minutes there would be no callback - there was not.
