Sample interview questionsHow would you design a production RAG pipeline for a large and frequently changing knowledge base?I would separate ingestion, chunking, embedding, indexing, retrieval, reranking, context construction, and generation into observable components. I would use incremental indexing, metadata filtering, hybrid retrieval where appropriate, a reranker for precision, and offline plus online evaluation to track answer quality, latency, and retrieval recall.

What metrics would you use to evaluate retrieval quality and end-to-end RAG performance?

For retrieval, I would measure Recall@K, MRR, nDCG, and coverage against curated relevance judgments. For end-to-end performance, I would evaluate groundedness, answer correctness, citation accuracy, task completion, latency, and failure rates, supplemented by human review for high-impact use cases.

Describe how you would improve a retriever when relevant documents are not appearing in the top results.

I would first diagnose whether the issue comes from corpus quality, chunking, embeddings, query formulation, indexing, or ranking. Potential improvements include domain fine-tuning embedding models, query rewriting or expansion, hybrid lexical-semantic retrieval, metadata-aware filtering, hard-negative training, and cross-encoder reranking.

How have you moved a machine-learning research idea into a reliable production service?

I begin with a measurable hypothesis and reproducible offline benchmark, then build a modular implementation with versioned data and model artifacts. Before release, I validate latency, reliability, safety, and cost under realistic load, deploy behind monitoring and experiment controls, and iterate using production feedback.

How would you decide whether GraphRAG is more appropriate than standard vector retrieval?

I would choose GraphRAG when questions require multi-hop reasoning across explicit entities and relationships, where isolated document similarity loses important structure. I would compare it against strong vector and hybrid baselines on representative tasks, considering answer quality, freshness, graph-maintenance cost, and latency before adopting it.
