Interview prep: questions this posting points to

Written from 8 current Data Engineering postings on Amazon's own careers page — not questions Amazon has asked.

  1. Walk me through how you would design an ETL pipeline on AWS Glue and Redshift that consolidates finance data from 11 countries into a single unified dataset tracking 500+ operational and cost metrics at daily granularity. How would you structure it so that a new country can be onboarded without rewriting the pipeline?
    From the posting: “build and scale a unified data platform that supports over 100 active finance users across 11 countries... tracks 500+ operational and cost metrics at daily granularity”
  2. It's the morning before a weekly business review and the finance team's cost-performance dashboard is showing numbers that don't reconcile between finance, stores, and operations datasets. Walk me through how you'd triage this.
    From the posting: “collaborating with finance analysts to reconcile discrepancies between finance, stores, and operations datasets”
  3. These teams are actively migrating legacy systems to AWS and consolidating data from 11 countries and 100+ finance users. Tell me about a time you had to manage a complex data migration while keeping the old system running. What went wrong, and how did you handle it?
