I did not study CompSci but microengineering (mix of things, including robotics and manufacturing) and I am now working there as a SRE. Some colleagues are mathematicians. So definitely not only CS background :)

So in interviews do they also test mathematicians and engineers on undergraduate courses?

Yes. It doesn't matter what field you were in, it matters how well you know the skills they are looking for.

Had exactly the same interviews as my colleagues from a CS background.
