Wildcard Entry - If answers is liked by us will directly approach you for Interview Gala Intelligence is building a system where a user enters a phone number and we need to determine whether that number appears trustworthy, suspicious, spam-related, or simply has insufficient information.

You have access to multiple sources such as our internal database, public internet sources, third-party APIs, user reports, and business data, but the data can be incomplete, outdated, contradictory, slow to retrieve, or unavailable - and for many phone numbers you may find almost no useful information at all.

If you were the engineer responsible for building the first version of this system, how would you approach the problem from start to finish - what would you check, how would you combine and validate the different signals, how would you handle conflicting or missing information and unavailable APIs, how would you keep the system fast and scalable, what assumptions would you make, and what would you build first if you had only two weeks?

There is no single correct answer . We are interested in understanding how you think, break down an ambiguous problem, identify trade-offs, question assumptions, and arrive at a practical solution.

You do not need to write code. Keep your response concise and explain your reasoning.
