Interview Prompt

Our gaming platform generates hundreds of millions of player events per day across millions of concurrent sessions - matchmaking events, trophy unlocks, in-game purchases, and session telemetry. Different internal teams need this data at very different latencies and granularities. Design the event pipeline and justify where you use real-time streaming versus batch processing for each consumer.

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
