1) Call with "CTO", who answers any questions about the company. Sounds like a standard phone screen.
2) Work sample, the company now wants you to prove you are worthy of talking to them again.
3) Another phone call, this time with "hiring manager" to discuss "compensation" - which I will presume means they will ask you how much you're currently making or expect to make. Do they divulge their salary bands first?
4) Onsite.
My assumption: once their team becomes bigger, the CTO call will be replaced by someone in HR and they will further standardize their process to the current market dynamics. And I still didn't read what was so revolutionary, maybe because they don't do "puzzles" and instead make you spend hours on "work samples"?
