    A good software engineer is also an architect. You don’t need dedicated architects if you have good developers.

    But on the other hand there are much more questionable and unnecessary jobs like product managers or managers of managers.

      I disagree with not needing dedicated architects at least once you reach a certain size. If there are 50 plus developers working on a dozen or more projects there’s a large communication cost to stay on top of everything.
