Developers.
There are those that would say they live in a totally different world. Personally, I would agree.
I’ve taken it upon myself to help lead people into understanding of BEA Weblogic (AKA Oracle Weblogic) jobs. Aqualogic is yet another title that is commonly associated with the world of Weblogic.
To start let’s find out exactly what a Weblogic 8 or similar type of programmer does? The easy answer is that they develop projects using Weblogic technologies.
Here is a list of qualifications I found on a recent announcement for a new job.
• Portal Lead with 6-9 years of experience in software development
• WebLogic Portal 10.3 framework, features
• Personalization (themes, layouts, skins)
• Page Flows and Annotations
• Security – Entitlements/UUP/Roles
Don’t worry if you are unfamiliar with those terms above as this is a bird’s eye look into the world of Weblogic.
Weblogic education includes familiarity in the following areas:
• BS degree in engineering, MIS, computers or related work experience.
• Knowledge of the development life cycle and Web development.
• J2EE platform developing
J2EE platform, what is that?
Turning to Webopedia I found the following answer
J2EE is a platform-independent, Java-centric environment from Sun for developing, building and deploying Web-based enterprise applications online.
Therefore, for those with an understanding of Java it would make sense to learn Weblogic
Understanding the future of the industry of Weblogic is a really good idea before entering into training for this discipline. Weblogic is in demand today and into the foreseeable future especially if you live in one of the following states:
- New Jersey
- New York
- Virginia
- California
- Connecticut
- Texas
Weblogic is just one of many options available for people who live in these locations. For those that are unable to relocate while holding in demand skills telecommuting might be an option to pursue.
Finding Weblogic jobs elsewhere is possible though the challenge could be a bit more fierce. Or you may need to consider a move, especially if you are able to secure one of the higher paying opportunities that Weblogic jobs offer. Typically speaking you can expect anywhere from 46 to 92K for a Weblogic job with many opportunities available in the 70 to 100K range.
Titles for Weblogic positions usually are similar to the following:
• Weblogic Architects
• Weblogic Admins
• Weblogic Developers
Of the 3 the greatest growth appears to be taking place within the realm of Weblogic Developers. Weblogic positions are available beyond that of Developers though they may be harder to find and secure.
There are several books worth reading for those that would like more information about Weblogic including:
• WebLogic Server Bible
• J2EE Web Services on WebLogic
• Oracle WebCenter 11g Handbook
• WebLogic 8.1 Unleashed
• J2EE Performance Testing with WebLogic Server
A simple search on Google or query on Amazon will help you find any of the above books or ones like them.
