HackerRank is looking to hire a Solution Engineer (SE) who can work closely with our customers and sales reps to implement the product in the right way. The term implementation means two things:<p><i>Helping answer technical queries by customers both pre-sale & post-sale. For eg: how do you ensure that a Python code is given the same CPU resources as a C++ code to ensure fairness in evaluation since Python is a slower (interpreted) language than C++ (compiled)?<p></i>Ensuring the tests are implemented right. For every (job role, seniority) we have a set of challenges that are appropriate. The SE needs to ensure that any question that a customer creates or we create follows the framework, monitor the performance of the test (how many people clear the challenge and what % get offers?) and provide the right recommendations to tweak the test, to increase the onsite -> offer ratio.<p><i></i>Our hiring process:<i></i><p>[1] Solve this coding challenge: <a href="http://hr.gs/se-challenge-2017" rel="nofollow">http://hr.gs/se-challenge-2017</a>
