This question tests the conceptual understanding of weight initialization strategies and the symmetry-breaking property required for neural network gradient-based optimization.
Machine LearningTechnical ScreenDeep LearningInitializationOptimization - TowerMediumMachine Learning EngineerExplain the KV Cache and Prefill-Decode Disaggregation in LLM Serving
Explain how the KV cache speeds up autoregressive decoding in transformer language models, estimate how much GPU memory it needs, and describe prefill-decode disaggregation in LLM serving. It tests understanding of compute-bound versus memory-bound inference phases, cache sizing and the trade-offs of splitting the phases across GPU pools.
Machine LearningTechnical Screen - TradedeskMediumFrontend EngineerDebug a Frontend Component That Shows Wrong API Results
A front-end debugging question in which a React component that fetches data sometimes shows results that do not match the current input, even though each API response is correct. It tests how the candidate reproduces a timing-dependent bug, finds the root cause, fixes it in the effect, handles cancellation errors, and verifies the fix with a deterministic test.

This problem tests your ability to build a resilient data-fetching client that handles network unreliability, data integrity validation, and efficient caching patterns.
Software Engineering FundamentalsOnline AssessmentAPICachingError Handling - TradedeskMediumFrontend EngineerImplement a Publish-Subscribe Event Bus in JavaScript or TypeScript
A front-end coding question asking the candidate to implement an in-process publish-subscribe utility in JavaScript or TypeScript with subscribe, publish, and unsubscribe. It tests API design, choice of data structures, safe iteration when subscribers change during a publish, isolation of subscriber errors, and cleanup that avoids memory leaks.
Software Engineering FundamentalsOnsite - TradedeskMediumFrontend EngineerObject-Oriented Design of an Elevator Control System
An object-oriented design question asking the candidate to model an elevator control system: its classes, their responsibilities, and how a button press becomes an elevator stop. It tests requirement scoping, a clear per-car state model, stop ordering and dispatch policies that can be swapped out, handling of out-of-service cars and duplicate requests, and testability.
