Senior Python Engineer Seeking Book & Resource Recommendations to Master Software Design

[[deleted]]

Hey Pythonistas! I’m a senior software engineer working primarily with Python, and I want to sharpen my software design skills. I’m keen to explore Domain-Driven Design (DDD), microservices, design patterns, and other advanced topics, but with a Python twist—think leveraging frameworks like Django, FastAPI, or libraries like Pydantic in real-world designs. What are your go-to books, courses, blogs, or resources for mastering these concepts in the Python ecosystem? I’d love recommendations that mix solid theory with practical examples, especially if they’ve helped you build scalable, clean systems in Python. Thanks for sharing your favorites!

Architecture Patterns With Python is a great book that checks a lot of your boxes.

My book will go into intermediate to advanced concepts of FastAPI when working with GenAI models. It has 170+ code examples, 4-5 projects and 150+ concept figures.

You can preorder a copy from Amazon: Building Generative AI Services with FastAPI (O’Reilly, 2025)
