Company Product and Design Knowledge Questions

Demonstrate a well researched understanding of the company, its major products, target users, market position, and core business model, combined with familiarity with the company design philosophy and visible product design patterns. Prepare to speak about flagship products and features, typical user demographics and needs, the engineering or product challenges the company faces, and how those constraints shape product and design decisions. For design roles, be ready to articulate what you admire about the company design aesthetic, specific patterns or interactions you observe, accessibility and usability trade offs, and how your own design sensibilities or past work align with and could contribute to that aesthetic. For non design roles, emphasize product priorities, technical or operational challenges, and how your skills would help advance those products. Cite concrete examples such as a recent feature, a product workflow, a known engineering challenge, or public design documentation to show you have done focused research.

List the top five product metrics (KPIs) you would present to product managers within 24 hours after launching a new flagship feature. For each metric, explain why it matters for product/UX and how you would implement the metric in the data platform (event sources required, deduplication, timeframe assumptions).

You are asked to provide feature usage metrics for a mobile-only feature where devices may be offline and sync events later. Design an ingestion and reconciliation approach that handles idempotence, ordering, sessionization, and eventual consistency so the final metrics are accurate. Explain how you handle conflicting timestamps and duplicate uploads.

Research the company's flagship product (pick one if there are multiple). In 3–5 sentences describe: 1) the product's core value proposition, 2) 2–3 primary user personas (demographic + user intent), and 3) three concrete implications for data engineering (for example: telemetry to capture, latency SLAs, privacy or residency constraints). Cite at least one public source you used (product page, blog post, or release note).

The company's UI uses many micro-interactions (hover previews, tiny animations) that generate high event volume but low business signal. Propose a data architecture and processing strategy to compute reliable business metrics without incurring excessive storage/compute costs, while preserving the ability to investigate micro-interaction issues when needed.

When preparing event data for product usability analysis on the company's mobile app, list at least five data quality checks (for example: duplicate events, timezone anomalies, missing user_id, out-of-bounds timestamps, property-type mismatches) you would run before the product team consumes the report. For each check, briefly explain how you'd implement it in the pipeline.
