I attended a graduate assessment centre arranged as a group interview, and the logistics overshadowed everything else. I was told to be there at 8:45 for a 9:00 start, but no one was at the front desk for a while. Around 9:10, I was still waiting with no clear guidance. At the introduction, I learned that the assessment was actually scheduled for 9:30, so I had effectively been asked to arrive 45…

When answering architectural or design questions, avoid stating a single absolute solution
Instead, explain why you chose a specific technology or pattern, mentioning the trade-offs regarding performance, complexity, and maintainability.
Pay close attention to the details on your CV
Interviewers frequently anchor their questions directly on the tools, versions, and frameworks listed on your resume.
A queue or buffer with no bound
Every producer-consumer boundary needs a capacity and a policy for reaching it: block the producer, shed load, or drop the oldest entry. Unbounded buffering converts a temporary slowdown into memory exhaustion and hides the backpressure signal that would have revealed the consumer was falling behind.
Choose a category, try a prompt, then open its approach, worked solution or follow-up when you need it.

Replace offset paging on the resource feed with keyset
resource holds resource_id, tenant_id, owner_user_id, title, body_ref, version, status ('draft','active','archived','deleted'), created_at, updated_at, deleted_at, with an index on (tenant_id, status, updated_at DESC, resource_id DESC). The listing endpoint returns active resources for one tenant, newest update first, 50 per page, today with LIMIT 50 OFFSET n. Tenants reach page 400 and rows are created while they read. Write the keyset query, define what the cursor carries and how it is encoded, and say which part of the index each predicate uses. Assume PostgreSQL 16.
Approach
- Name the two failures separately. OFFSET 20000 makes the server produce and discard 20,000 rows, so page cost grows with depth rather than with page size. Independently, any write that changes how many rows sort above the offset moves the window between two fetches, and the direction decides which anomaly you get: an insert lands at the head of updated_at DESC and pushes already-returned rows down past the boundary, so they are returned a second time; a delete above the offset, or a row whose updated_at is bumped above the cursor, pulls rows up and one is never returned at all. Nothing in the response reveals either.
- Write the seek: WHERE tenant_id = $1 AND status = 'active' AND (updated_at, resource_id) < ($2, $3) ORDER BY updated_at DESC, resource_id DESC LIMIT 50. The row-value comparison is one index range rather than a disjunction, and both columns are NOT NULL, which is what makes that comparison well defined.
- Map each predicate onto the index: tenant_id and status are equality on the leading columns, (updated_at, resource_id) is the range, and the ORDER BY matches the index order so no Sort node appears and the scan stops after 50 rows. The DESC in the definition only matters for mixed directions — a plain ascending btree on the same columns is read backwards for this query.
- Put both sort columns in the cursor and nothing the client can tamper with into another tenant: base64 of (updated_at, resource_id), validated server-side, with tenant_id taken from the principal.
Follow-up
- The client asks for 'jump to page 400'. What do you offer instead, and what does the honest version cost?
- Sort order becomes user-selectable across four columns. How many indexes is that, and which would you refuse to add?
Hold a per-tenant active cap against concurrent creates
A tenant on the standard plan may hold at most 50 resources with status='active'. The create handler runs SELECT count(*) FROM resource WHERE tenant_id = $1 AND status = 'active', compares to 50, then inserts. Two creates arrive 3 ms apart on different instances and the tenant lands at 51. Name the anomaly, say whether PostgreSQL 16 READ COMMITTED or REPEATABLE READ prevents it and why, then give an implementation that holds the cap at READ COMMITTED with the exact statements. Finally, say what changes when the cap is 'at most one running export per tenant' on job_run.
Approach
- Name it: write skew. The two transactions read an overlapping set and write disjoint rows, so there is no row-level conflict for the engine to detect and each commit is individually legal.
- Rule out the levels precisely. READ COMMITTED takes a fresh snapshot per statement and takes no lock on the counted rows, so both see 49. PostgreSQL's REPEATABLE READ is snapshot isolation: it removes non-repeatable reads and phantoms within the snapshot but still admits write skew, because the anomaly is not a re-read of a changed row, it is a read of a set that a concurrent transaction invalidates. Only SERIALIZABLE closes it, by tracking the read dependency and aborting one transaction with SQLSTATE 40001 — a guarantee that exists only if the application re-runs the whole transaction from the read.
- Convert the set predicate into a single-row conflict: keep tenant.active_resource_count and run UPDATE tenant SET active_resource_count = active_resource_count + 1 WHERE tenant_id = $1 AND active_resource_count < 50 in the same transaction as the INSERT. Zero affected rows is the cap, returned as 409. The row lock serialises the decision at any isolation level, and contention is bounded to one tenant's row — which is also the fair-scheduling unit, unlike a global counter that would convoy every tenant behind one row.
- State the cost you just took on: a counter is a second source of truth that can drift, so every path that changes status must adjust it inside the same transaction, and a periodic reconciliation has to exist, with resource_revision as the authority for what the count should have been.
Follow-up
- A resource moves from archived back to active. Which statements change, and what breaks if the counter update and the status change land in different transactions?
- The cap becomes plan-dependent and a plan can change mid-month. Where does the number 50 live, and who reads it?

Read latency spikes on a sixty-second sawtooth
The cached listing read path serves about 14k reads/second at an 85% hit rate. p99 sits at 35 ms for 57 seconds, jumps to 900 ms for 3, and repeats. During each spike the primary shows several hundred identical listing queries starting within the same millisecond, all carrying one large tenant's id. Cache entries use a 60-second TTL. Give the mechanism, the ordered checks, the fix, and the correctness hazard your fix must not introduce.
Approach
- Match the period to a configured number before theorising about load. A spike every 60 seconds against a 60-second TTL is an entry expiring, and you confirm it by correlating spike timestamps with the entry's write time rather than with the traffic curve. If the period had matched a cron or a GC interval instead, this is a different investigation.
- Establish the concurrency of the miss. Several hundred identical queries in one millisecond means the miss path has no coalescing: every request that arrives between expiry and repopulation recomputes. The herd size is that key's arrival rate times its recompute time, so at 1.2k reads/second for the hot key and a 250 ms recompute you expect about 300 concurrent misses, which matches what is observed.
- Add single-flight on the miss path so one caller per key recomputes under a short-lived lock while the rest wait for its result. Prefer stale-while-revalidate where the read tolerates it: return the expired value immediately and refresh asynchronously, which removes the latency spike rather than serialising it into a queue of waiters.
- De-synchronise the keys. Write TTLs with jitter, for example 60 seconds plus or minus 10%, so a deploy or a mass invalidation does not align every key on the same second and turn a per-key herd into a fleet-wide one.
Follow-up
- The same sawtooth appears on a key that is invalidated on write rather than expired. Is that the same bug?
- How does your answer change if the recompute takes 4 seconds instead of 250 ms?
