Asking for secret tips is a tra, because most teams reuse standard DS and a simple service you can explain end-to-end. Show how you’d slice scope in the first 5 minutes, estimate traffic, and call out your decision-making process as you go.

Ask them what success looks like on this team and what metrics they own, then tie your choices to latency, cost, and reliability targets, as well as how you'd fit those specific team requirements.

Not sure where Dandy is on the maturity curve, but if they’re shipping fast, they’ll test for ownership and tradeoffs over fancy infra. Frame answers with a default now choice and what you’d change at 10x traffic to show you can move and still think ahead.

I haven't watched Dandy's interview, but for system design interviews, it's important to clearly explain your thought process. Break down problems and talk about trade-offs. Check out the company-specific bank on prachub.com it can really help you see what system design questions might pop up. Just don't depend on it completely, as these interviews can be unpredictable.
