Nurturing Design in Your Software Engineering Culture

Strategic Tech

MARCH 16, 2021

There are a few qualities that differentiate average from high performing software engineering organisations. In my experience, the culture is better and the results are better in orgs where engineers and architects obsess over the design of code and architecture. They prefer to work in isolation and just deliver.

Software development is not an established discipline where there is a clear technique used to solve any given problem. In fact, there are near infinite ways to solve every software engineering challenging. The costs of entropy in software systems cannot be over-emphasised. This is natural, yet this is also a big problem.
