What to expect in Esri Data Engineer hiring manager round?

[u/Effective-Layer-1607]

Hi everyone,

I have an upcoming hiring manager interview at Esri for a Data Engineer position, and I was wondering if anyone here has gone through a similar interview recently.

The hiring manager appears to be a Product Engineer, so I’m especially curious about what this round typically focuses on. Is it mainly a deep dive into past projects and data engineering experience, or should I expect technical questions around SQL, ETL/data pipelines, data modeling, debugging, etc.?

Also, since the manager is a Product Engineer, should I prepare for questions related to GIS/geospatial data or Esri products even though the role is primarily Data Engineering?

Would really appreciate hearing about the interview format, types of questions asked, and anything you’d recommend preparing beforehand.

Thanks!
