Team Structure and Collaboration Questions

Describe the composition and organization of the teams you have worked within, including team size, reporting lines, centralized versus distributed models, and formal collaboration practices. Explain your role in cross functional workflows between design, product, and engineering, how decisions were made, and any tooling or rituals used to coordinate work. For mid level and senior candidates, emphasize mentoring and leadership contributions such as onboarding juniors, running design reviews, delegating tasks, and driving cross functional alignment. Interviewers assess your ability to operate within and influence team structures, communicate effectively across functions, and grow others.
