What information do you need in a user story?
This tests your ability to connect engineering work to user value. A great answer covers the user persona (who), their motivation (why), and measurable success criteria (what), explaining how this context informs technical decisions.
This question tests if you are a product-minded engineer who connects work to user value, not just technical specs. A great answer moves beyond the 'what' to cover the 'who' (user persona), the 'why' (the problem and motivation), and the 'how we know' (measurable success metrics). You should explain how this context helps you make better technical tradeoffs and propose simpler, more effective solutions. A major red flag is treating the story as a simple task list and only asking for implementation details.
