What is a System Design Document, or SDD, and how is it used in your work as an integration engineer?

Before your interview with Stripe, it is recommended that you review the processes, procedures, documents, and tools you use in your job. Even though you may already be familiar with these, reviewing them before the interview will help bring them to the form of your mind and enable you to quickly recall them when asked. Responding to an interviewer's questions quickly and accurately demonstrates your qualifications as well as your preparedness for the interview.

"I have used System Design Documents, or SDDs, in my previous roles. This is a written description of a software product created by the software designer to give the software development team an overview of the architecture of the software project. These usually accompany the architecture diagram with links to detailed specifications of the design. The SDD provides the software development team a unified vision and can be used as a reference, outlining each application component and how they interact."
