IAM Java Lead should have the ability to drastically improve application functioning within a business through speed and scalability of their solutions. The day-to-day tasks vary depending on the level of ownership over one application or many.

• Conduct software analysis, programming, testing, and debugging, as well as recommending changes to improve the established processes.
