How do you handle non-functional requirements in a product backlog?

This tests your ability to integrate quality attributes (NFRs) into the agile workflow. Make them visible in the backlog, add them to the Definition of Done, and break them into testable sprint tasks. Red flag: treating NFRs as separate, non-sprint work.
This tests making abstract qualities like performance tangible within Scrum, preventing them from becoming critical debt. A strong answer makes NFRs first-class backlog items with measurable criteria, embeds them into the Definition of Done, and breaks them into estimable sprint tasks. A red flag is suggesting 'hardening sprints' or siloing NFRs to an infrastructure team, which undermines shared ownership.
