I‘ll be at the WeAreDevelopers „World Congress“ in Berlin next week and happy to discuss anything around building and evolving productive engineering organizations, strategic technology leadership, or to deep-dive into event-driven architecture topics. So if you’re also there and want to meet up, DM me.

Next week, I will be at Flowtopic Live 2026. I'm looking forward to be with other practitioners, and I will give my talk "Team Topologies in the Age of AI".
I'm working with some companies that are adopting AI while maintaining flow and allowing platforms to emerge. What have been your experiences with it?

Hallo Mastodon 👋
Ich bin Lead Software Engineer aus Berlin und schreibe hier künftig über Softwarearchitektur, Entwicklung, Teamstrukturen.
Mich interessiert besonders, wie wir Softwaresysteme bauen, die nicht nur technisch funktionieren, sondern auch verständlich, wartbar und anpassungsfähig bleiben.
Sense. Learn. Adapt.

Zsófia Herendi and I will be running a hands-on lab at DDD Europe in Antwerp on
June 12.The premise: you can't design teams without understanding how the business
creates value.We'll connect Business Model Canvas to Team Interaction Modeling. Practical
heuristics that you will discover by working with your peers!This is not a slideshow. A lab where you will share insights with others!

You added colors to your org chart and called it Team Topologies.
The authors didn't mean that. They gave us patterns and heuristics for reasoning about the limits of teams' cognitive load and how it affects the flow of value.
We need to put the work into designing non-blocking services, streamlining team interactions, and ensuring value flows through the system.
Org charts show reporting lines. They don't show how value moves.

Organisational Dysfunction of the Day
Team Topologies, the wrong way round
Context: Leadership has read Team Topologies. The insights are compelling: stream-aligned teams owning end-to-end delivery, platform teams reducing cognitive load, enabling teams building capability. A reorganisation is planned. Teams are renamed and restructured. The new topology is announced. People find themselves in stream-aligned teams that still wait for approval from the same architects, report to the same managers, and receive priorities from the same product managers who held the backlog before. The platform team is the old infrastructure team with a new name and a mandate to serve internal customers, though nobody agreed on what that means. The enabling team runs workshops that nobody has time to attend. Six months in, the cognitive load has not decreased. Delivery has not improved. Leadership concludes that the teams need to embrace the new model more fully. Another round of communication is planned, and product coaches are hired en masse to fix people.
OST explains: Team Topologies describes structural patterns that emerge from healthy organisations. Like DORA, it is a map of what good looks like, not a recipe for getting there. The patterns only function as intended when the teams operating them are genuinely self-managing, owning their work, coordinating among themselves, and making decisions without constant escalation. Imposing the topology from above while leaving the underlying design principle unchanged is a bureaucratic (DP1) move applied to a self-managing (DP2) framework. Stream-aligned teams become delivery units with a new name. Platform teams become service departments, and their internal customer model quietly recreates the same dependency it was meant to dissolve. Goodhart's law applies here as much as it does to DORA: the moment the topology becomes a target, it stops being a good topology. The book is right. The reorganisation missed the point.

You can't design teams and software without understanding how value flows through the business.
My new case study: an e-learning SaaS company used DDD principles and practices to move from a Big Ball of Mud to domain-oriented teams.
The customer onboarding went from 60 days to 20 minutes. Cloud costs dropped 80%.
But the story doesn't end here. Read the full case study: https://joaorosa.consulting/services/organization-transformation/scaling-a-corporate-e-learning-saas-platform/

Adding manpower to a late software project makes it later.
We've known this since Fred Brooks wrote it in 1975—the opening sentence is a direct quote. Yet many projects still try to add people to meet deadlines, and it fails.
Even skilled developers need ramp-up time, during which they reduce the team's productivity.
I wrote about why this happens and what actually works: https://factor10.com/news/why-is-it-so-hard-to-optimise-software-delivery-under-stress/

Some of those stickies at the bottom of the board are still open questions. Good. Better to ask them here than have someone answer them quietly in a pull request.
Architecture is already happening across the whole room. The question is whether we make it visible.This is part of day two of my DDD foundation workshop, and honestly one of my favourite conversations to facilitate.

The reason? I'm simply not done yet. And I wonder if I ever will be.

What do you do on the weekend? Prepare for the week ahead.
I'm finalizing my workshop gear for another #TeamTopologies and #FastFlow 2-day workshop for a cloud platform at a large organization.
I love these challenges. Finding leverage points for a platform's evolution to increase its effectiveness for the consumers. Plus, it is a regulated industry; we can enable compliance and speed at scale.
If you want to improve flow with your org, drop me a message. ✍️
Happy Sunday!
