What is the Odoo Architecture & Scalable Systems Design course about?

Many technically strong developers struggle when promoted to solution architect. They’re expected to design systems that last years, not just ship features. Without a structured approach to modular design, dependency management, and long-term upgrade paths, even solid codebases become technical debt traps. The transition from developer to systems thinker is rarely taught, but it’s critical for engineering leadership.
