Sr. Data Engineer Top Tech Architecture
RedditThe Binding and the Claim
Our insurance platform generates two classes of events: synchronous policy transactions (bindings, endorsements, cancellations) that need immediate confirmation, and asynchronous claim events that are processed in the background. Right now both go through the same database tables and the analytics team can't query them without hitting production. Design an event-driven pipeline that handles both correctly.
Ask the interviewer clarifying questions to understand the requirements and constraints before designing.
