Welcome to your interview.
The question is on your right: Balance Delivery and Maintainability. Take a moment with it first.
Talk your thinking through with me if you like - when you're confident, submit your answer and I'll grade it like a real screen (7/10 or better passes). Discussion and graded submissions share your five interviewer interactions, so spend them well.
You're leading an engineering initiative where the business wants visible progress quickly, but the underlying system has enough technical debt that rushing delivery could create long-term cost and instability. You need to show near-term results without locking the team into brittle architecture, recurring rework, or a growing maintenance burden.
How do you balance short-term delivery with long-term maintainability?
