A solutions architect turns a business problem into a technical design that a team can build, that operations can run and that the organisation can afford. This track covers the role in six stages: how to elicit and shape requirements, the core patterns of application and data architecture, integration and APIs, cloud and infrastructure decisions, the non-functional qualities that decide whether a system survives contact with reality, and the communication, estimation and governance skills that senior architects are actually hired for. Every lesson ends with an action step that builds a portfolio artefact.
For senior developers, technical leads and infrastructure engineers moving into design ownership.
