  Systems architect - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Systems of this size are rapidly becoming the norm, so architectural approaches and architects are increasingly needed to solve the problems of large systems.
A systems architect is expected to combine knowledge of both the architecture of the user's world and of (all potentially useful) engineering systems architectures.
If the engineered system is large and complex enough, the systems architect may defer to a hardware architect and a software architect for parts of the job, although they all may be members of a joint architectural team.
