Siemens Software Engineer Interview Questions and Answers

Updated 1 Jun 2025

10 Interview questions

A Software Engineer was asked 6mo ago
Q. How many zeros are there in the factorial of n?
Ans. 

The number of zeros in the factorial of n depends on the number of factors of 5 in n!

  • Count the number of factors of 5 in n! to determine the number of zeros

  • For example, in 10! = 10 x 9 x 8 x 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1, there is one factor of 5, so there is one zero at the end

A Software Engineer was asked
Q. Given an array containing only 0s, 1s, and 2s, sort the array in-place.
Ans. 

Sort an array of 0s, 1s, and 2s.

  • Use three pointers to keep track of the positions of 0s, 1s, and 2s.

  • Traverse the array and swap elements to their respective positions.

  • Time complexity: O(n), Space complexity: O(1).

A Software Engineer was asked
Q. How do you remove duplicate variables from a string?
Ans. 

To remove duplicate variables in a string

  • Iterate through the string and keep track of each character

  • If a character is already encountered, skip it

  • Create a new string with non-duplicate characters

A Software Engineer was asked
Q. Write a program to transpose a matrix.
Ans. 

Program to transpose a matrix

  • Iterate through rows and columns of the matrix

  • Swap the elements at (i,j) and (j,i) positions

  • Return the transposed matrix

A Software Engineer was asked
Q. Implement a stack data structure.
Ans. 

Implement stack data structure

  • Use an array or linked list to store elements

  • Push operation adds element to top of stack

  • Pop operation removes element from top of stack

  • Peek operation returns top element without removing it

A Software Engineer was asked
Q. Explain the internal implementation of prefix and postfix operators.
Ans. 

Pre and post fix operators are used to increment or decrement a value before or after it is used in an expression.

  • Pre-fix operator (++x) increments the value of x and returns the new value.

  • Post-fix operator (x++) returns the value of x and then increments it.

  • Both operators can be used with variables of numeric data types.

  • They can also be used with pointers to increment or decrement the memory address they point to...

A Software Engineer was asked 3mo ago
Q. What is rdd?what is uses?
Ans. 

RDD (Resilient Distributed Dataset) is a fundamental data structure in Apache Spark for distributed data processing.

  • RDDs are immutable collections of objects that can be processed in parallel.

  • They support two types of operations: transformations (e.g., map, filter) and actions (e.g., count, collect).

  • RDDs can be created from existing data in storage (e.g., HDFS) or by transforming other RDDs.

  • Example: Using 'map' to...

Q. What is cdc?what purpose for using?
Ans. 

CDC stands for Change Data Capture, a technique for tracking changes in data for various applications.

  • Enables real-time data synchronization between databases.

  • Used in data warehousing to keep data updated without full refresh.

  • Facilitates event-driven architectures by capturing changes as events.

  • Example: Capturing updates in a customer database to reflect in a CRM system.

A Software Engineer was asked
Q. How global variable work , how its shared by all function
Ans. 

Global variables are accessible from any part of the program and can be modified by any function.

  • Global variables are declared outside of any function.

  • They can be accessed and modified by any function in the program.

  • If a function modifies the value of a global variable, the new value is visible to all other functions.

  • Global variables can be useful for sharing data between functions.

  • However, overuse of global varia...

A Software Engineer was asked 10mo ago
Q. Design patterns used
Ans. 

Various design patterns like Singleton, Factory, and Observer are used in my projects.

  • Singleton pattern ensures a class has only one instance and provides a global point of access.

  • Factory pattern creates objects without specifying the exact class of object that will be created.

  • Observer pattern defines a one-to-many dependency between objects so that when one object changes state, all its dependents are notified an...

I appeared for an interview before Jun 2024, where I was asked the following questions.

  • Q1. Merge two sorted arrays
  • Ans. 

    Merge two sorted arrays into a single sorted array efficiently.

    • Use two pointers to track the current index of both arrays.

    • Compare elements at both pointers and append the smaller one to the result.

    • Increment the pointer of the array from which the element was taken.

    • Continue until all elements from both arrays are merged.

    • Example: Merging [1, 3, 5] and [2, 4, 6] results in [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6].

Why are women still asked such personal questions in interview?
I recently went for an interview… and honestly, m still trying to process what just happened. Instead of being asked about my skills, experience, or how I could add value to the company… the questions took a totally unexpected turn. The interviewer started asking things like When are you getting married? Are you engaged? And m sure, if I had said I was married, the next question would’ve been How long have you been married? What does my personal life have to do with the job m applying for? This is where I felt the gender discrimination hit hard. These types of questions are so casually thrown at women during interviews but are they ever asked to men? No one asks male candidates if they’re planning a wedding or how old their kids are. So why is it okay to ask women? Can we please stop normalising this kind of behaviour in interviews? Our careers shouldn’t be judged by our relationship status. Period.
