Java Architect REMOTE

We are actively hiring for a bright, talented Java Architect to join our awesome UK based team. Right now, we have capacity to hire a seasoned Java Developer who has gained some exposure to Architectural work, and who wishes to pursue a career in this field.

You must be well-versed in all things Java, have a good understanding for best practices around TDD/BDD and CI/CD but most of all you will have the aptitude to develop a career as an Architect.

The role of a Java Architect at Team ITG will give you the opportunity to work as part of a collaborative team, who deliver stunning projects for some of the biggest, most innovative and exciting brands.

We are an exciting, friendly company who can offer you the chance to work on a diverse range of projects, ranging from highly complex product configurations to bespoke web applications interfacing with a number of services.

Sound like your thing so far?

The Solutions Architect will act as an internal consultant, advising teams and clients on how best to develop software solutions, getting their hands dirty and writing code when required to solve particularly challenging problems, and building a knowledge base of the software products and services we offer.

We're looking for someone who has the aptitude to lead development teams, work with the client and Agile teams and has strong design skills. It goes without saying that you will have awesome communications skills.

As a Java Architect, you must be capable not only of developing software or reviewing code when needed, but also demonstrate a firm grasp of the full Systems Analysis lifecycle: requirements capture, planning, project estimation and software design. You should be also able to provide leadership and mentoring of less experienced members of the development team.

This role is all about working with others to solve difficult technical challenges. As such the candidate must be able to quickly grasp new programming languages and frameworks in order to support the wide range of technical challenges encountered on each project.
