From my perspective, the top “must-reads” are:
— John K Ousterhout, A Philosophy of Software Design
— Titus Winter (et al), Software Engineering at Google
— Hanson and Sussman, Software Design for Flexibility


Other interesting titles that caught my eye:
— Peter Naur, Programming as Theory Building

— Nick Tune, Patterns, Principles, and Practises of Domain Driven Design
