Systems Architecture

Software Development and Engineering Practices

The high-level structural design of a complex system, defining its components, their relationships, interfaces, and how they interact to meet functional and non-functional requirements like scalability, security, and reliability. Systems architects and software architects make foundational decisions about technologies, patterns (e.g., microservices vs. monolith), and infrastructure that shape a project's long-term maintainability. This role sits above individual engineering teams, coordinating technical direction across a product or organization.
