Describe a specific project where you led an end-to-end innovation from idea to production. Be concrete: - What was the problem, constraints, and success metric baseline/target? - How did you align cross-functional stakeholders, handle resistance, and secure resources? - Which risks were highest (technical, regulatory, operational), and how did you de-risk them? - What trade-offs did you make (build vs buy, scope vs timeline), and why? - How did you measure impact post-launch (e.g., SLA, error rate, cost/time), and what were the quantified results? - Now, describe a process you personally automated: architecture, tools, testing, observability, rollback plan, and how you kept it maintainable as requirements evolved. - If you had 50% less time or a key stakeholder pulled out at the last minute, what would you change to still deliver?
