A coding challenge question was nice. I received a SpringBoot application with maven project. It also had integration tests. The question was to create 3 Rest endpoints with straight forward logic. The challenging part is not to implement the requirements but to implement it in a codility environment. Codility is the worst platform to implement a modular application, it works for small algorithmic problems. Despite I was able to run full problem in my IDE (Which they also recommend), I was not able to detect why it failed to compile and run on the codility. It is difficult to implement, copy to codility and make it run on codility within 2 hrs.

Generic question like overall experience and domain knowledge ( which I had). Tech round involved some deep dive on the system design topic like performance, including some not so difficult coding challenge. In the 'Meet the team' round they asked me some more technical questions but it was mostly informal.
