"InfoQ has expanded its software architect certification offerings with a new online certification program designed to help senior software engineers and architects translate technical expertise into strategic influence within their organizations. The InfoQ Certified Architect Program begins October 13, 2025, with the first two cohorts running simultaneously to accommodate European and North American time zones. The new five-week online format addresses feedback from senior engineers and architects who sought the certification benefits, but needed more flexible scheduling than the in-person certification experience offered at QCon conferences."
"Principal Solutions Architect, Luca Mezzalira, will facilitate the cohorts of senior engineers and software architects. Mezzalira, who has over 20 years of experience and has consulted with more than 100 teams on distributed architectures, emphasizes the evolving nature of the architect role. "The role of architecture is becoming increasingly decentralized, and the very concept of an 'architect' is quietly evolving", Mezzalira said. "We're moving from being gatekeepers and owners of decisions to becoming coaches, context providers, and ecosystem enablers"."

The format responds to senior engineers and architects who wanted certification benefits but required more flexible scheduling than in-person QCon events. The program targets the evolving architect role as responsibilities decentralize across functions and emphasizes communicating business value, securing leadership buy-in for technical decisions, and influencing organizational strategy beyond system design. The program combines theory and practice and is facilitated by Luca Mezzalira, an experienced principal solutions architect and consultant to distributed teams.
