Your system architecture mirrors your organizational structure—whether you planned it that way or not. In this episode, we explore Conway's Law in practice: how team boundaries, communication patterns, and organizational design directly shape the technical systems you build.
What You'll Learn:
- How team structure inevitably dictates system architecture
- Why organizational design is a technical decision
- Real-world examples of Conway's Law in action
- How to align teams with your desired architecture
- The relationship between communication patterns and system boundaries
- Strategies for restructuring teams to enable better systems
Key Insight: If you want to change your architecture, you have to change your team structure first. Conway's Law isn't a suggestion—it's an organizational reality that shapes every system you build.
