Product Manager Technical Interview Questions

Hamilton D. - "no"See full answer

Shahid K. - "Asked clarifying questions, this was similar to box. Took a minute to gather thoughts. Came up with a structured approach. Focused on use cases, prioritized it. They wanted to focus on security aspects, MFA, simultaneous read/write operations, etc."See full answer

Anubhav A. - "Clarifying questions: Are we taking about a personal parking lot or a public parking lot Do we have an objective in head for this lot -> Make money? Public parking lot from govt body Do we have a particular location in head for this -> basement, outside some building or on the roof Are we particular about the number of vehicles it can take up? Are we particular about the kind of vehicles that it can take up? (2 wheelers, 4 wheelers, heavy weight 4 wheelers) Taking a few assumptions:"See full answer

Darpan D. - "Clarifying When we say cloud gaming, we refer to a video gaming experience using cloud computing, right? Assumption: Yes. Understanding of cloud computing first. I'll use some analogies: Imagine you are looking to do heavy computing but don't have a powerful CPU and GPU. CPU and GPU are like your big calculators. You can buy a powerful CPU and GPU, but problems: It costs a lot to buy. It costs a lot to run. You don't need it 24-7. You are not a un"See full answer

Ian R. - "You might build a product like this a few ways. I think you'd definitely want a temperature sensor device (maybe like a TMP422, or maybe there's a different one that is standard for wearables) that was worn by the individual. As far as tracking social distance, my answer here is more dependent on the state of the art of robust (wearable) distance measurement. Maybe there's something available better than ultrasonic sensors, maybe there's some kind of electromagnetism based solution that isn't in"See full answer

Scott S. - "As engineering managers, it’s our obligation to prioritize and manage technical debt properly. However, achieving the correct mix between reducing technical debt and providing new features while meeting deadlines can be fairly tough.To manage technical debt efficiently, it’s vital to first understand how to detect it inside your projects. One way to do this is by doing regular code reviews and encouraging your team to share any concerns or areas where they feel the codebase may be improved. This"See full answer

Naga M. - "Based on the required significance level (usually less than 5%) and based on the test power (usually 95%?), I will calculate the required sample size. Once I get the sample size, then I will do the A/B testing until I meet the sample size."See full answer

Sim S. - "Started with user-groups to identify the differences world wide: speed of internet, how high end devices are The interviewer just wanted to dive into the questions of latency & the technical fast. I then said let's separate out server vs client. On server side, cannot have australian users hitting california servers for data. So must be some sort of global availability of caching. And ensure rapid read out of that cache so something like a redis solution would help. Then switch gears to cli"See full answer

Coco H. - "These works often aren't comparable, so that I'd use a balanced portfolio of 20%-30% engineering needs and 70%-80% user needs to satisfy both sides. However, this is only a starting point, if engineering requests more than this baseline then I would use ROI to prioritize."See full answer

Karthik M. - "Assumptions & Clarifications Users have access to all Google Workspace applications like Google Drive, Gmail and the same photo editing tool - let us call this tool - Google Photo Editor (GPhoto). Users can share the images like Google Docs - giving people read-only, read-write / edit access Goals Google's vision is to organize the world's information and make it accessible. GPhoto's mission / goal is to organize the world’s photo and make it accessible to others to view, edit or"See full answer

Marwan O. - "My company was acquired and I was responsible for planning and managing a transition & integration of custom real-time time-series data and event capture software. I worked with lab scientists (who were running the instruments from which the data would be captured) to understand their unique needs compared to the use cases the software was originally written and deployed for. I wrote proposals for integrating specific components of the software and abandoning others, receiving review and a"See full answer

Praful B. - "Define the goal of the experiment. What do you want to test? Are you trying to improve conversion rates, increase engagement, or something else? Identify the variables to test. What are the different options that you want to test? For example, if you are testing different call-to-action buttons, your variables would be the different button text and colors. Set up the experiment. This involves creating two versions of the app or website, one for each variation of the variable that you are testi"See full answer

Surbhi G. - "In order to train a machine learning model for license plate detection, which is essentially image recognition, I would first need a large labeled dataset of images featuring license plates. From hereon, I would use a model architecture suitable for image-related tasks, like CNNs (Convolutional Neural Networks). When it comes to deploying the model, I would first optimize it, aiming for the best balance between speed and accuracy. Depending on the specifications, the model could be deployed eith"See full answer

Parth P. - "Establish more servers on regional bases or locally and move network traffic to these servers instead of keeping on one server."See full answer

Anubhav A. - "Started at 1.48 Clarifying question: Are we interested in a particular lens for this problem? Looking back in history to understand what significant changes did fast internet made in the world: -> Fast Internet - More consumption -> Fast Internet - More Adoption -> Fast Internet - Cheap Internet Let's try to see what kind of things will change in each of these categories. Let me look at it from a lens of an end user (internet consumer uses the internet for work and maintaining their socia"See full answer

Surbhi G. - "My preference would likely be server-side deployment given the specification of millions of users. However, it is worth considering a hybrid model too; where basic, non-sensitive, and less compute intensive tasks are processed on the client-side, while the heavy-duty processing is done on the server side. The main advantage of client-side deployment is it can work in real-time and offline. It also significantly reduces the load on your servers, making it more efficient in handling other tasks.
