We are halfway through 2021, so we decided to take a look back at some of the top engineering teams that we got to learn more about through our Engineering Spotlight and Inside: Engineering series.
Each spotlight gives you an inside look at the company's technical stack, the complexity of problems the engineers get to solve, the team's culture, what to expect for an interview and more.
Below is a list of the companies we've featured, along with a couple of snippets from their Engineering Spotlight or their "Inside:" video feature.

You can expect to meet different people across the department where you would also get an opportunity to ask questions.
