Software Architect Reviews
What is it like working as a Software Architect?
April 2016
Software Architect:
Do not go to university. Do some gardening instead.
If you are going to be a Software Archotect, you'll learn all you need out of curiosity anyway.
March 2016
Software Architect:
Pros: Being part of a company that is truly a world class technology leader.
Cons: Software is a second-class citizen. Silicon design and schedule is always job 1. Management rarely recognizes that tradeoffs in silicon design to pull-in silicon schedule typically push out the software schedule by 5x longer, thus the overall time-to-market is worse.
