Sample interview questions
I would begin by clarifying source formats, volume, latency, quality expectations, and downstream use cases. I would build modular ingestion, transformation, validation, and publishing stages, use scalable storage, and implement schema management, observability, retries, and data-quality checks. I would also document lineage and create automated tests for critical transformations.
I define measurable quality rules for completeness, uniqueness, validity, consistency, and timeliness. I implement checks at ingestion and transformation stages, quarantine invalid records when appropriate, monitor quality metrics, and alert owners when thresholds are breached. Clear ownership, lineage, and root-cause analysis are essential for preventing recurring issues.
A common issue is data skew, where a small number of keys create disproportionately large partitions and slow down tasks. I would inspect the Spark UI for long-running stages, uneven task durations, shuffle volume, and executor utilization. Depending on the root cause, I might repartition data, use key salting, optimize joins, filter earlier, cache selectively, or adjust partition sizing.
I first confirm the business objective, intended users, decisions supported, definitions of success, source-system constraints, and required freshness. I then document assumptions and create a concise data model, pipeline design, acceptance criteria, and test plan. Throughout delivery, I review progress with stakeholders to ensure the implementation continues to meet the actual need.
I use unit tests for transformation logic, integration tests for source-to-target flows, and data reconciliation checks against expected totals and business rules. I also test failure handling, schema changes, duplicate records, late-arriving data, and performance under representative volumes. Automated tests should run in CI so that regressions are detected before deployment.
