  1. Imagine you are building a new feature for Axon Body 4 cameras that allows officers to tag key moments during an incident in real-time. Design the system architecture, considering the constraints of limited bandwidth and the need for low latency. How would you handle potential data loss if connectivity is intermittent?

    Software EngineerSystem DesignTests: Evaluates system design skills, handling real-world constraints, and fault tolerance.
  2. A customer reports that the Axon Evidence.com dashboard is slow to load for their agency, especially when filtering by date range. What debugging steps would you take to diagnose the performance issue? Assume the issue could be in the database, API, or frontend.

    Software EngineerDebuggingTests: Assesses debugging methodology, understanding of distributed systems, and problem-solving under pressure.
