I think about how to redesign it to look better I wonder what's broken behind the scenes and how to fix it I think about how to protect it from being exploited or attacked I want to capture or document the problem creatively I think about why someone built it that way and how to improve the process I want to understand what data would prove it's actually a problem None Hint How much coding are you comfortable with? I want to code a lot - that's the main thing I want to learn I'm open to moderate coding if it helps me build things I prefer minimal coding - more visual/creative tools I want to understand code but not write it all day I'm open to whatever level is needed for the role None Hint You're stuck on a problem for 2 hours.
