Interview Prompt

A public health-tech company has run on a 1.4 PB Snowflake warehouse plus a separate 6 PB raw S3 lake for four years. Two answers exist for every metric and storage costs grew 4x year over year. The new chief data officer commits to a unified lakehouse architecture. Apply the entire L3 tier so a single lakehouse archive feeds the warehouse mart, ML training, and regulator audits, with the operational app keeping its own store and a compaction job keeping file size in target.

How This Interview Works

  1. Read the vague prompt (just like a real interview)
  2. Ask clarifying questions to the AI interviewer
  3. Write your pipeline design solution with real code execution
  4. Get instant feedback and a hire/no-hire decision
