You’re reviewing how an engineering team works because delivery feels inconsistent, but it’s not clear whether the current process is the cause or a symptom. You want a structured way to tell whether the team’s rituals, handoffs, and planning habits are improving execution or slowing it down.

Whether the candidate defines delivery health before judging process qualityUse of KPIs and leading indicators rather than anecdotes aloneAbility to separate process issues from scope, staffing, and dependency issuesBalanced view of speed, predictability, quality, and team sustainability
