Mayshine

I'm a <ahem> technical architect working with j2ee in Dublin. Pay is average I guess, not that I really know what others earn...

Static M.e.

Mayshine what exactly is a technical architech?
I keep seeing it advertised asking for all kinds of funky stuff
but what exactly do yee do

thanks
( just a quick off topic question )

Hellrazer

Spare-parts manager for a leading car dealership/Trying to get my own company up and running at the mo repairing/upgrading/selling puter stuff etc.
Most of the questions I post on the Tech and/H/w tweaking is for punters who think I can do the job.Well if they want to pay €50 per hour Im not gonna argue.

Mayshine

Hmm, yeah I've been wondering what exactly that is myself. My boss put it down on my last review, and as far as I'm concerned he knows best:cool: Anyway I design and code certain parts of a multichannel architechture used for banking, the sort of stuff that is used for Internet banking, banking over your phone etc

In my company the term is used quite loosly, but I guess it would apply to a person who can produce a good design to solve any sort of technial issue/problem etc etc

In reality I am little more than a programmer with a bit of desing thrown in

Ronan|Raven

Used to work for a while helping in the production of the steel frames for warehouses etc. Then worked for a hardware company sitting on a forklift all day (handy for speeding off when ya may be asked to do something!) Then worked as an underpaid dogsbody on a building site. Hopefully after I complete this year in college (my last tf) ill finally get the job im after (PC repairs etc)

Mayshine

Hmm, Its really not all that hard. I would imagine some coders get stuck trying to solve more archic problem than an architect ever will.

A *real* technical architect generally should have quite a good few years of problem solving behind them

All just fancy names at the end of the day
