💬 Potential Interview Questions
-
How do you manage concurrency in Go when building scalable backend services?
Use Goroutines for lightweight threads, channels for communication, mutexes for shared state, and context for cancellation/timeout control in long-running processes. -
Describe your approach to optimizing MongoDB performance in high-traffic applications.
Use appropriate indexing, avoid unbounded queries, leverage aggregation pipelines, implement sharding for scalability, and regularly monitor with MongoDB Atlas tools. -
How do you integrate React and Node.js in a fullstack application?
Use Express.js to serve APIs or SSR for React, manage routes carefully, handle authentication via JWT or sessions, and structure the codebase modularly. -
What strategies do you use to write clean, production-ready TypeScript in a React app?
Enforce strict type checking, use interfaces for props/state, isolate logic in hooks or services, apply reusable components, and integrate ESLint/Prettier for code consistency. -
How do you containerize a fullstack app using Docker for local development and deployment?
Create separate Dockerfiles for backend/frontend, use Docker Compose to manage services (MongoDB, Node, React), expose ports, and define environment variables for config. -
How do you approach debugging and resolving issues across a fullstack codebase?
Reproduce bugs locally, trace logs through backend/frontend, isolate modules, use breakpoints or console logging, and validate fixes with unit/integration tests. -
What are your best practices for writing and maintaining clear technical documentation?
Keep docs close to code (e.g., README, JSDoc), document APIs with Swagger/Postman, maintain onboarding guides, and update changelogs with each release. -
Describe a time you worked with an existing codebase—how did you ramp up and contribute quickly?
[Example] Read through key modules, ran the app locally, mapped out the architecture, asked clarifying questions, then made small improvements/tests to build context. -
How do you ensure robust testing and code quality in a CI/CD workflow?
Write unit/integration tests, use Jest/Mocha for JavaScript, Go’s built-in testing package, run tests in pipelines, and block merges on failures via GitLab/Jenkins. -
How do you balance immediate delivery with long-term maintainability in a fast-paced environment?
Prioritize by impact, refactor incrementally, use tech debt tickets, apply design patterns where needed, and communicate trade-offs clearly with the team.
