Today marks the one-year anniversary of me stepping into a formal architecture role from that of backend developer, so I've dusted off my old blog to reflect a bit on what I’ve learned so far.
You don’t have to be the best developer
Your value is not in the technical design
You can’t fix organizational issues with technology
Your political skills are more important than your technical skills
@joelving@matthewskelton great post - I'm on a path now where I either go EM or Architecture - both have their pros and cons but I am leaning more to architect since it seems to be part of the job I'm good at. Like you, for me it's not about the technology solutions but how they fit together to meet the business needs.
