Software Architect

Summary
What does a software architect do?

For a while, my job title was Technology Architect. That’s another name for Software Architect. I googled for it and found this page describing the role. It links to a professional association for Software Architects.

Anyway, this one by Martin Fowler is more interesting: Who needs an Architect

• Architecture from FOLDOC
• Becoming an Architect
• Paul Graham’s Hackers and Painters
• I wrote something on software design that, I think, is relevant.

• ESR on Project Structures and Ownership
