Functional Architect Program

StackRoute partnered with Happiest Minds to upskill tech leads, designers, and developers, equipping them with the necessary skills and mindset to transition into architect roles.

The Problem

Underdeveloped Architectural Planning

Happiest Minds, a leading name in digital transformation and IT consulting realized the need to groom senior employees deployed as Tech Leads, Senior Developers, and Lead Developers to take on architect roles. However, the major challenge was embracing an architectural thinking culture, knowledge of core architecture fundamentals, and a strategic mindset. Additionally, the organization sought to showcase a growth path for others, fostering a culture of continuous development and coaching for high-potential individuals.

The Solution

Mastering the Ability To Articulate Architecture With Growth Vision

Taking on a holistic approach, StackRoute equipped participants with the essential technical and strategic competencies needed to excel in architect roles. As a learning partner, we developed a 16-week tailored learning program structured into three key phases.

  • Phase 1, Acquainting learners with market dynamics and changing tech landscape through the lens of an architect
  • Phase 2, Inculcating architectural thinking mindset and concentrating on strengthening the understanding of architectural foundations and principles
  • Phase 3, Helping participants master the ability to articulate architecture with intent, establish a clear architectural vision, and develop strategic roadmaps
