Design a Technical Interview

https://lknuth.dev/writings/design_technical_interview/

Last year, the company I work for was looking to hire a Backend Engineer. We wanted somebody who was a senior or on their way to becoming one. The Backend Squad was tasked with designing an interview to help decide who to hire based on technical merit. Above all, we wanted our interview to favor candidates that are good fits. Now, after working with our new hire for about 11 months, we know that we succeeded.
