This tests ownership and proactive communication. A great answer involves documenting questions in the ticket, engaging the PM and tech lead for a discussion, and updating the ticket with clear acceptance criteria before starting any work.

A strong answer outlines a process: document questions in the ticket, proactively schedule a meeting with the PM and relevant engineers, and ensure the ticket is updated with testable acceptance criteria before starting to code. The biggest red flag is starting to code based on assumptions or just reassigning the ticket without context.
