Problem

Tell me about a bug you encountered in a past project; how did you fix it, and how would you prevent it in the future? Explain how you diagnosed the issue, prioritized the response, communicated with affected stakeholders, and determined whether the fix worked. Focus on your specific contribution, the root cause, the resulting impact, and the process or technical changes you would make to prevent recurrence.
