Tell me about a bug or mistake you shipped, what the impact was, what you learned, and how you would handle that situation here.

"I applied and they called me the next day, which was faster than anything else I have seen. The process was a recruiter screen, a 55 minute phone screen, and then a five-interview final loop with no take-home, all done remotely even though the role was SF-based. The most unusual parts were that the recruiter gave me actual feedback between rounds and that the EM system design was really a critique of a prebuilt Anthropic-style inference design, not a blank-sheet design. Across the whole loop, they cared a lot more about my resume, project decisions, management style, and culture than coding or AI trivia. I ended up getting rejected, and the written feedback was that my people-management round did not show the depth they were looking for."
