Implementing a distributed key-value store on top ...
One a rare occasion I actually got feedback after the interview (it was for a startup), It was because I asked 'too many questions' it was decided that I'd need way more mentoring than they can afford for the senior position I was applying for.

That's infuriating. There's a clear distinction between asking "how do I do this thing?" and "what do you want me to do?"
I can't read your mind, and that goes both for interview questions and determining product needs.
