Ask your hiring manager questions about decision making. Some I like:
“How do product/feature decisions get made? Walk me through the lifecycle of a new feature from customer/stakeholder to release and evaluation”
“What’s the org approach to tech debt? How do various proposed fixes get prioritized and worked on?” (In a top-down org even tech debt will be centrally groomed. In a fully distributed org the answer is something like “what? Folks just fix stuff that needs to be fixed.”)
“How do you align your teams to the company’s / org’s objectives?”
Basically you need to treat interviews as two-way. You are interviewing the company too, and you can always ask for another Hiring Manager chat at the end of the process if you still have Qs you didn’t get to.
