Product design question
Lawyers will rarely ask for 'better queuing' or 'stronger isolation,' but they will care deeply about accuracy, latency, reliability, auditability, and security. How would you uncover those needs and translate them into clear infrastructure product requirements and prioritized engineering work? Be specific about discovery methods, requirement framing, and how you would separate must-haves from nice-to-haves.
