Bain & Company·Software Engineer·Onsite - Multi Round
Sep 2026
Got an offer from Bain & Company for an AI/ML Engineer role after five rounds. The process was heavily project-focused, and they really wanted to see that you actually built what's on your resume, not just that you can talk theory.
- Walk me through one of your GitHub projects end-to-end: why you built it, how it works, the architecture, and the decisions you made along the way.
- Draw out the complete pipeline for one of your ML projects and explain each component, including how they connect.
- Given this real-world scenario, design a full project around it: walk through your approach, architecture, data flow, and the reasoning behind each decision.
- Tell me about your internships and the ML work you did there.
“They literally pulled up my GitHub mid-call and picked a project themselves.”
