Location: Blue Bell, PA - Onsite Work
Job Description
Technology stack: Oracle, PL/SQL, Java - React and Angular. Manager wants someone with great communications skills, a critical thinker, and is very convincing when speaking... The Technical Architect provides architectural leadership and guidance in their assigned business area, aligning solution development efforts with the broader architectural vision and roadmap.
A Technical Architect s skills and knowledge must include multiple domains (Application/Solution architecture, Technical/Infrastructure architecture, Information/Data architecture), and experience with relevant implementation technology, platforms, and tools. As a leader, a Technical Architect is expected to influence the assigned organization and work independently with senior business and IT leaders, while acting as a mentor and role model within the development teams. The Technical Architect is accountable for successful implementation of architecture in their assigned organization/teams, which requires excellent communication skills, the ability to work with developers of differing skill levels, and the ability to recognize, surface, and resolve architectural issues in a collaborative manner.
Architecture Leadership: The Technical Architect translates business strategy, the Architecture Vision, and the Architecture Runway into business area solutions, architectures & implementable features. The Technical Architect will drive the technology vision within their business/application area, evaluate new technologies and external products for their applicability to their specific project or roadmap requirements. This includes taking an opportunistic approach for the inclusion of the enterprise s Architecture Runway components into the incremental development plans (PI, or Program Increment Planning) of their assigned teams and applications. This must balance business needs and R&D needs, ensuring pragmatic use of development resources while enabling the business to achieve their goals in an economical, scalable, and supportable way. The Technical Architect will establish and maintain technology standards for their applications and drive technical designs to consensus and approval, as necessary. The Technical Architect will also participate in the Enterprise Architecture COP, allowing them to support the creation and evolution of enterprise architecture, including an Architectural Vision, Architecture Runway, and governance processes.
Managerial Responsibilities: The Technical Architect will lead the technology vision, architecture, and implementation in their assigned business area, and will mentor developers within the associated development teams. If the Technical Architect has direct line team members, they will also act as a player/coach and assume general personnel management responsibilities (personal work assignments, timecards, periodic goals & reviews, quality reviews, etc.). Other Related Responsibilities: In coordination with the Enterprise Architecture COP, the technical Architect may be called on to analyze technology industry and market trends to determine their potential impact on the business and the enterprise architecture, which will help evolve the Enterprise Architecture Vision and Runway. Complete all responsibilities as outlined on annual Performance Plan. Complete all special projects and other duties as assigned. Must be able to perform duties with or without reasonable accommodation.
Qualifications: Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology or related field, or equivalent experience. 8 years of experience in Application/Solution architecture, Technical/Infrastructure architecture, or Information/Data Architecture. Hands on experience in both greenfield development and the refactoring/rewriting of aging applications. 1 years directly leading architecture & software design for one or more teams. Experience working in an Agile Model, preferably SAFe. Experience with CI/CD practices. Experience using open source technologies in an enterprise environment. Experience with multiple, diverse technologies and processing environments.
Prefer experience with these core technologies: Microservices, Containerization, Virtual Machines. (Note: other business area of application area needs may be added here). Ability to rapidly comprehend the functions and capabilities of new technologies. Ability to balance the long-term ("big picture") and short-term implications of individual decisions. Ability to translate business needs into architecture requirements. Ability to articulate advanced technical topics to both technical and non-technical staff. Ability to articulate business issues/concerns with staff, peers, superiors, and outside parties (e.g. vendors, partners). Ability to estimate the financial impact of architecture alternatives.
