Java Technical Architect

( Java , J2EE , Spring , Oracle , Technology Architecture )

The Java technical architect proactively and holistically leads and supports activities that guide the development and management of technical solutions.
These solutions enable the organization's future-state business capabilities and drive the organization's targeted business outcomes.
Technologies include Cloud, mobile, edge computing.
Solutions include projects, systems (including applications, technologies, processes and information) and shared application services.
Technical architects provide the leadership, facilitation, analysis and design tasks required for the development of an enterprise's technical application architecture.
