I have inerview coming up next week for SDE II role at AWS. What system design questions shoul I prepare? - scaling systems - OOP design - algorithmic - ... anything else? Thank you so much for any advice! TC 270
Don't do it OP at your TC. If you need big name on resume then there are other giants. You are top of band SDE-2. Even if you make it and they match your pay, you will not see any salary increase for next 4 years
I have income from other sources, so it is not only about money
What are your otheer sources.... please share
yoe?

Watch some videos
For OOP/api or for scalability?
Agree with other amazonians here. I'm not a SDE, I'm a SA its very system design/architecture based role. If you're not strong in whiteboard, practice that. They're looking to see how you get to your design and how you commit to it while under pressure (confidence in your approach and final solution).
SA?
Solutions architect
The only real answer to system design is - practical experience in doing some design In terms of book knowledge , grokking works
How did it ago? I have same interview in 2 weeks

How is the job market for senior roles ?
You're nearly top of the band for SDE 2. I'd only come if they level you to SDE 3.
They will not. They already mentioned it. I still need this because I don’t have a big company name on my resume
Suit yourself, your list looks correct, make sure you study on on Leadership Principles and are ready to mesh them into your work stories.
