Five rounds in total.
The first round was with a recruiter and covered some basic Linux and networking questions.
The second round was with the team lead and focused mainly on scenario-based questions, such as how you would troubleshoot a slow database.
After that, there were two in-depth technical interviews covering databases, Linux, and other skills listed on your CV.
The final round was with the hiring manager.
