In their own words
The workshop was excellent preparation for system design interviews. It goes beyond typical Senior-level content by focusing on the strategic thinking, trade-offs, and clear communication expected at the Staff level. The practical frameworks and real-world examples helped me structure ambiguous problems more effectively and justify my design decisions with confidence. Highly recommended for any Senior engineer looking to level up.
I really enjoyed this class. Ehsan is incredibly friendly and open to discussion, creating a great environment where everyone feels welcome to participate. His deep expertise in complex systems and software engineering principles made this course incredibly useful. I have nothing but great things to say. If you want to master complex system design, this is the course to take!
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.
Ehsan produced fantastic work and innovative solutions that allowed us to deliver our products on time. We had very short deadlines, and Ehsan picked up the problem domain very quickly and developed solutions appropriately. Working with a detail-oriented and on-schedule team member is a plus to his work ethic. It was a pleasure working with him.
It was a great session with Ehsan. I really admired the way he made me understand about so many things. I got to learn a lot from him
Ehsan gave me really clear and practical advice on my resume and career direction. His feedback helped me focus on what actually matters to recruiters and improve how I present my skills. Super helpful and easy to talk to !!
