I have interview for SD2 for Amazon Alexa backend team. Could anyone tell me your experience with interviewing for Amazon Alexa? What to expect?
I was asking about onsite. Could you tell me what type of system design question can be expected?

Should be same as any other SDE2 spot at Amazon. First 15-20 min will be some leadership principle questions (look them up, that's public), generally framed as past work experience. Then a technical question - each interviewer looking for a different skill. Most will be coding, 1 should be system design. Most interviewers should introduce themselves at the start and give you time to ask questions about Amazon or whatever at the end. Don't be shy about asking clarifying questions throughout, especially for the technical portions.
System design for phone interview as well?
Shouldn't be, but doesn't mean it definitely won't be touched on at all.
