2 technical rounds based on past research and graduate statistics and optimization courses. Lat few questions were behavioral based on Leadership principles. Both interviews went well but never received feedback about why I was turned down.
I had a zoom call with the hiring manager. I was asked technical questions during the interview, such as "How do you compute the conditional median of a set of data points?"

Pretty fast and well-organized interview process. Scheduling was easy, communication of different interview expectations was clear, and feedback came quickly after each stage, which made the overall experience quite smooth.
