Problem

Scenario

You're joining a product team that already has an established design system, and you're asked to design new flows for a digital banking experience. The expectation is that your work feels consistent with the rest of the product while still solving the specific user problem well.

Question

How have you utilized or contributed to an existing design system to maintain consistency? Walk me through how you decided when to reuse existing patterns, when to propose changes, and how you kept scope under control.
