Problem Solving and Ambiguity Handling Questions

Evaluates how candidates approach ill defined problems, make decisions with incomplete information, and continue progress under uncertainty. Topics include structuring ambiguous problems into hypotheses, performing rapid experiments and lightweight investigations, prioritizing next best steps, making trade off decisions between speed and confidence, using instrumentation and logs to validate assumptions, and communicating risks and unknowns to stakeholders. Candidates should demonstrate frameworks for triage, mitigation strategies, and examples where they preserved momentum while reducing risk.
