our department. The resource will be involved in collaborating with business
area to ensure the technical design of the application meet the business
requirements. Since changes are being made to modernize and enhance the
stability and functionality of the MDSS application, the resource is integral

compliance, and securing the applications.  The resource will also perform as application architect and provide
technical guidance to the other developers in the department.  The architect will also participate in a

issues, errors causing data integrity and can eventually lead to incorrect
