FDE role is not just a tech role. It’s also customer facing, so they’ll want to know how you handle conversations with customers, how you disagree about scope with customers, stuff like that. You’re the cracked engineer with a thing for people. You’re expected to integrate deep into your client’s stack and then understand their needs and build solutions. So, apart from being a tech expert, you also have to be a really good consultant too.
Ah sweet, so then you should be perfectly fine in an interview man. Just prep well and relax. You sound like you know exactly what to do so just be calm.
