One real conversation.
A six-minute screen for a backend role. Press play and read it as it ran.
Hi Dana. This takes about six minutes, and you can answer by voice. Ready?
Yes, go ahead.
Tell me about the last billing system you worked on. Which part did you own?
I owned the metering service. It counted usage events and priced them nightly.
How many events a day did it price, and where did it slow down?
About four million a day. The nightly job ran long once we passed two million accounts.
Something broke in production. What was it, and what did you change after?
We double-charged 300 accounts on a retry loop. I rewrote the service in Go and made every write idempotent.
What is your notice period, and what salary are you looking for?
Four weeks. I am looking for around ninety-five thousand.
That is everything. Thank you, Dana.

Fixed a duplicate-charge incident by rewriting the service in Go with idempotent writes.
Available in four weeks, asking for £95,000. Explained retry and dunning logic without prompting.
