Course Description

So you want to be a software architect?

Or perhaps you're a manager who wants to hire a software architect?

Well, this is where you should look at.

If you want to be a software architect, you have to be ready for a job interview. And in this course you're going to have just that - interview questions for the software architect.

In this course you'll find 2 timed practice tests, each with 50 questions (for a total of 100 questions!) that simulates a job interview for a software architect. At the end of each test you'll be presented with the correct answers, along with a detailed explanation of the question and the answer.

These questions are based on questions I was asked in interviews (and I had dozens of those), and also on questions I asked candidates when interviewing them (and I had hundreds of those).

The questions cover all the topics you, the architect, should be fluent with:

- System architecture

- Component architecture

- Technology stack

- Non-functional requirements

- Architecture document

- Soft skills

- Architecture process

- Security

And lots more...

So if you're thinking about becoming a software architect - make sure you can pass these tests, and be sure they'll help you in your own interview.

And if you're a manager looking for a software architect -

Use these questions in the interview. You can be sure that a candidate that knows how to answer these questions - is an experienced, professional software architect.

The course is useful as practice material, but I found parts of the test and explanations too simplified for architecture topics. Many of these questions depend heavily on context, assumptions, and trade-offs, yet the answers are sometimes presented as if there were always one clear and universal solution. I would have liked more nuance, clearer reasoning, and more precise wording in some of the questions and explanations.

perguntas bem estruturadas e interface intligente.

By Anthony Rodrigues on 5/19/2023

It is basic questionaire

By Ahmet Yaşar Özer on 4/12/2023

Overall a good and helpful study. But there are obvious conflicts between some questions/answers (e.g. "load balancing does not improve security" in one question, but "it improves security by protecting against DDoS attacks" in another question), and some answers or questions are not clear, yielding a vague understanding.

By Ivri Rosen on 4/15/2022

Quite comprehensive, checks all the boxes on Software Architecture

By Ramakrishna K on 2/11/2022

Yes. But expected more critical scenarios

By John Paul on 1/8/2022

Thorough and comprehensive tests, include important topics any architect should be fluent with
