Propose a metric framework:

-
Experiment design & ship decision:
Describe how you would design the experiment and make a ship / no-ship decision, including:
-
Unit of randomization and key segments to monitor
-
Sample size / power approach (MDE) and duration considerations
-
How you would analyze results (e.g., confidence intervals) and handle pitfalls (SRM, novelty, repeated exposure)
-
No experiment possible:
If you cannot run an A/B test (policy, engineering constraints, or all-users launch), how would you measure impact as credibly as possible?
