Collaboration and Business Impact Questions
Emphasis on how cross functional work produces measurable outcomes for teams and the organization. Topics include defining success metrics, describing how collaboration influenced product or business outcomes, driving adoption of solutions across teams, and demonstrating impact at team and organizational levels. Candidates should be able to articulate how collaborative efforts changed roadmaps, improved metrics, saved costs, increased revenue, or accelerated delivery.

A model shows excellent offline metrics but is degrading in production, causing user-facing issues. Describe how you would run a cross-functional postmortem involving ML, data engineering, SRE, product, and support. Include timeline, artifacts (logs, data snapshots, experiments), root-cause analysis approach, immediate mitigations, and longer-term actions and communications to executives and customers.
