Technical descriptions and detail of systems and equipment I have previously worked on. Also asked me technical details of their product components, which is a lose-lose setup question.

Architect and Director on the call challenged some suppositions and gave some insights from their perspectives. They also asked me a specific logic question on a calculation for a UI situation.
