商品描述
The coding round for Forward Deployed Engineer roles is unlike any other interview in software. Candidates build, debug, and reason about LLM-powered systems live, while the interviewer escalates through the same failure modes that production agents hit. This book is a complete preparation system for that round – and every solution in it was executed before it was printed.
Two tracks, one method. Track A drills the LLM systems practicals – over 120 plus worked problems with the traps interviewers plant and the follow-ups they escalate into. Track B builds the agentic design patterns in depth: one pattern per chapter, from base problem through five interviewer-grade variations, with drills, checklists, and the one-sentence framings you can say in the room. All code uses the minimal stack strong candidates reach for: the Python standard library, the official Anthropic SDK, and Pydantic – no frameworks.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
Forward Deployed Engineer 職位的 coding round 與軟體業的其他面試截然不同。候選人必須在現場建置、除錯並推理由 LLM 驅動的系統,而面試官則會逐步加碼,模擬正式環境中的 agent 所會遭遇的相同失效模式。本書是為這一輪面試打造的完整準備系統,而書中的每一個解法都在付梓前實際執行過。
兩條學習路線,一套方法。A 路線密集訓練 LLM 系統實作題,包含超過 120 道完整解題題目,以及面試官刻意埋設的陷阱與可能進一步追問的問題。B 路線則深入建立 agentic 設計模式:每章聚焦一種模式,從基本問題一路延伸至五種符合面試官要求的變化題,並提供練習、檢查清單,以及你能在面試現場說出的單句式表述。所有程式碼都採用優秀候選人最常選擇的精簡技術堆疊:Python 標準函式庫、官方 Anthropic SDK 與 Pydantic,不使用任何 framework。
