You are given an array of integers. Write a function to find the contiguous subarray with the largest sum and return that sum. For example: Given the array [-2, 1, -3, 4, -1, 2, 1, -5, 4], the contiguous subarray [4, -1, 2, 1] has the largest sum = 6. Given the array [1, 2, 3, 4, 5], the contiguous subarray [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] has the largest sum = 15. Given the array [-1, -2, -3], the contiguous subarray [-1] has the largest sum = -1. Your function should be efficient and handle arrays with both positive and negative numbers. Explain the time complexity of your solution. Can you implement this using dynamic programming? Are there other approaches? Discuss the tradeoffs of the various potential solutions.

Let's discuss the system design of your existing Salesforce integration with a Java backend. Could you please elaborate on the architecture, including specific details about data flow, integration patterns, and technologies used? For example, walk me through a scenario where a new account is created in Salesforce, and how that information propagates to your Java backend system. What mechanisms are in place for real-time updates versus batch processing? How do you handle data transformations and ensure data integrity across both systems? What are the key considerations for scalability, security, and fault tolerance in your design? Finally, describe the monitoring and alerting mechanisms you have implemented to ensure the integration is running smoothly and to quickly identify and address any issues that may arise. Provide details on the error handling strategies employed to prevent data loss or corruption in the event of failures.

Tell me about yourself. To give you some guidance, please share information beyond just your resume. For example, what are you passionate about, what motivates you, and what are some of your long-term career goals? Think about some significant accomplishments you are proud of and how those experiences have shaped you. What makes you a unique candidate and a good fit for our company, beyond your technical skills? I'm looking for a comprehensive overview of who you are, both professionally and personally.
