Description
This open access book takes a deep dive into the depths of modern engineering practice. With wit, precision, and just the right amount of indignation, this book exposes the creeping rot behind today s glossy prototypes, frameworks, standards, and fads. From the problem of early productization to the (dark) art of faking requirements, each chapter is a no-nonsense autopsy of how brilliant ideas die under the weight of bureaucracy, reuse fetishism, and corporate theatre. This is not a book for those content with JIRA tickets and PowerPoint deliverables; it s for engineers, managers, and decision-makers who still care about making things that actually work. If you ve ever screamed internally at the sight of a 3,000-page spec or watched a project derail under the guidance of a consultant who flies business, this book is your manifesto. Sardonic, sharp but hopeful, Engineering is Broken seeks a cure, starting with the radical idea that common sense, humility, and technical courage still matter.
Chapter 1: Prototypes are not Products.- Chapter 2: Milking Designs.- Chapter 3: Diminishing Returns.- Chapter 4: Fake Requirements.- Chapter 5: The Crowd.- Chapter 6: Death By a Thousand Standards.- Chapter 7: Detail Myopia.
Ignacio Chechile is an engineer based in Helsinki, Finland, with more than 23 years of experience developing systems of many different sizes and complexities. His professional life pushed him into software quite early in his career, where he wrote hundreds of thousands of lines of code, many of which went to space. Later in his career, he moved into Systems Engineering and engineering consulting positions to the judgmental look of the Electrical Engineer that still lives inside him. Ignacio is an Expert Systems Engineering Professional (ESEP), certified by the International Council on Systems Engineering (INCOSE). Views in this book are strictly his own.
