Common Interview Questions

• Q: How does Binder IPC work in production? A: Answer with internals-first reasoning: describe the subsystem boundaries, explain the runtime behavior and bottlenecks, then show how you would validate with traces and measurable latency or memory budgets.
• Q: How does Android TLS stack integrate with apps? A: State load and SLO assumptions first, identify the first bottleneck, choose scaling and consistency strategy, and explain fallback behavior for partial failures.
• Q: How does StrictMode reveal internals issues? A: Answer with internals-first reasoning: describe the subsystem boundaries, explain the runtime behavior and bottlenecks, then show how you would validate with traces and measurable latency or memory budgets.
