Ehsan Gazar will make you the architect in the room

I'm a Staff Software Engineer with 16 years building and scaling production systems across fintech, SaaS, and enterprise software. I've made hundreds of architectural decisions in systems that had to survive real traffic, incidents, and org politics.

I've run 500+ mentorship sessions with senior engineers at a 5.0 rating, helping them close the gap between writing code and thinking at the architectural level. I've also taught 10,000+ students and distilled what separates engineers who get promoted from those who stay stuck.

I'm not an academic. Every framework here comes from real decisions or mistakes I had to recover from. I’ll teach you to think like a Staff Software Engineer: not “what’s the right answer,” but “what are the trade-offs, and what survives contact with reality.”

This is the second course I have completed with Ehsan, and it was just as insightful as the previous one. He is an exceptional instructor who carefully selects relevant topics, paces the class effectively, and ensures every student grasps the concepts.

Just wrapped up Gaz’s cohort, and it is genuinely useful if you are stuck trying to move an AI project past the local demo stage. Most tutorials completely ignore real-world friction, but this one focuses entirely on the messy stuff like keeping token costs down, fixing unpredictable agent loops, and setting up proper evals. You end up building concrete artifacts, such as runbooks and eval plans, that you can drop straight into your team's workflow. It is definitely worth your time if you are trying to ship AI features that will not break under actual user traffic.

The combination of live sessions, practical exercises, and real-world examples made the material directly applicable to design reviews, interviews, and day-to-day engineering work. I especially appreciated how the course connected technical architecture skills with the communication and decision-making expected at Staff level. I would highly recommend this course to senior engineers who want to strengthen their system design skills, lead architecture discussions more effectively, and prepare for the next stage of their careers.
