Synopsis

Today the system design interview is the dividing line between junior, senior, and staff+ engineering candidates, and even between frontline managers, senior managers, and directors. Candidates for the highest engineering roles must have a solid command of modern system design, and even candidates for higher-level management must be able to demonstrate a grasp of it.

This book is designed around the key concepts one needs to be familiar with before walking into a system design interview. Each chapter uses real-world examples to establish a mnemonic concept designed to aid one's recall in the stressful interview environment.
