What if, instead of getting larger and more brittle over time, making changes more risky, your software could get more modular and simpler, increasing the safety of the developers working on the code? The key to soft software is focusing on creating that safety first. How many of you used to be a developer?

I work in a domain where engineered systems are developed for complex software-intensive system of systems. These systems are engineered with a variety of development methods. Ranging from traditional to agile and combinations in between. Some are products in their own right, some are embedded in larger missions.
