✨**Synopsis**
System design interviews don’t have to feel overwhelming. In this workshop, **speaker**, **solutions engineer lead**, and **WomenDevsSG director** [Victoria Lo](https://www.linkedin.com/in/victoria2666/overlay/about-this-profile/) will walk you through a practical framework that helps you structure your answers, communicate tradeoffs, and focus on what interviewers actually want to see.

Instead of memorizing patterns, you’ll learn a repeatable method you can apply to any problem. Together, we’ll use a case study to:
✅ Break down requirements, entities, and APIs
✅ Sketch a high-level architecture
✅ Dive deep into critical design areas

You’ll also get **hands-on practice**: work through your own system design problem alongside other attendees, applying the framework in real time.

🎯 **For**: Engineers, job seekers, and professionals preparing for technical interviews who want to build confidence in tackling system design questions.

🔹 **Synopsis:**
Great products are built where technology meets strategy—but too often, technical concepts feel like a “black box” for Product Managers. This session unpacks the core tech ideas every PM should understand to communicate effectively with developers, scope features realistically, and make smarter product decisions.

From APIs to architecture, testing to trade-offs, you’ll learn how software is really built, why “simple” changes aren’t always simple, and how to balance speed, cost, and quality. We’ll also explore emerging trends like AI and cloud systems, giving you a toolkit to ask the right questions and avoid common pitfalls.

Walk away with practical analogies, real-world examples, and the confidence to partner with your engineering team more effectively.
