What this interview will probe

Design, develop, and test the software that controls and simulates Starship's flight systems, working across the full stack from application down through operating system, networking, firmware, and simulation in close partnership with hardware engineers. You'd write high-reliability C++ for vehicles where a software defect can lose a mission. A technical interview would probe deep C++ proficiency, real-time and embedded constraints, memory and concurrency management, and your ability to debug low-level software interacting directly with hardware and sensors.
