Technical Interview Preparation

What to expect: a 15-20 minute conversation about your project and technical choices

How to present your architecture: data flow, components, and their responsibilities

Explaining your trade-offs: why you chose specific tools, formats, or approaches

Common questions: "Why did you choose this data source?", "How does your error handling work?", "What would you change if you had more time?"

Discussing failures and debugging: what went wrong, how you fixed it, what you learned

Demonstrating your deployment: showing the running container, logs, and database output

Whiteboard skills: drawing a simple architecture diagram of your pipeline

Professional communication: being honest about what you do not know

Practice tip: explain your project to a peer before the interview
