Problem Decomposition and Design Tradeoffs Questions

Focuses on breaking complex products or systems into manageable components and asking clarifying questions that surface scale constraints success criteria and non functional requirements. Includes forming a stepwise plan to deliver iteratively identifying the smallest valuable scope to build testing important assumptions and balancing simplicity versus complexity and long term maintainability versus short term delivery. Interviewers test your ability to structure problems prioritize work and justify design trade offs with clear reasoning.
