Your Role and Responsibilities :
An IBM Z BTS is a leader in the definition and architecture of an end-to-end solution including the IBM Z platform. During construction, a Z BTS is the advocate for the client and guides the technical team. The Z BTS defines the structures of solutions and architectures to address client business strategy & problems; understands client needs and business constraints, works in levels of abstraction, applies industry knowledge, and leverages appropriate business elements and IT to address those needs; ensures viability of the proposed solutions - conducting solution assurance assessments; identifies and mitigates potential risks to the success of the project; pro-actively mediates resolutions to project conflict; and documents architectural decisions across the above elements. The Z BTS's work is focused on the front end of the solution lifecycle: listening to stakeholders, understanding their business problem, their requirements, making trade-offs between the business requirements, constraints of the system, and concerns of the various stakeholders and systematically forming incrementally more detailed definitions of the structures of a solution -- an architecture.
