Toptal: IBM FileNet Expert — Scoping & Solution Architecture | Remote
Headquarters: Remote
URL: https://www.toptal.com/
About the Role
We're looking for an IBM FileNet Expert to help scope a FileNet implementation, migration, modernization, or support project. This is a discovery and scoping-focused engagement: you'll join client calls to understand business and technical context, ask the right questions to clarify the current FileNet environment and future-state goals, and help define effort, risk, dependencies, and delivery approach. If you can walk into a client conversation and quickly translate ambiguous business needs into a clear technical scope, this is built for that.
What You'll Do
- Join client calls to understand business and technical context around the FileNet environment.
- Help scope the full FileNet project, including effort estimation, risks, dependencies, and required skill sets.
- Ask relevant technical questions to clarify the current FileNet environment and future-state goals.
- Provide recommendations on the best delivery approach and next steps.
- Assess technical requirements during client-facing discovery calls.
- Identify project risks, dependencies, and an appropriate delivery approach.
- Translate business needs into clear, actionable technical requirements.
What You Bring
- Strong hands-on experience with IBM FileNet.
- Experience scoping FileNet implementation, migration, modernization, or support projects.
- Ability to assess technical requirements during client-facing discovery calls.
- Experience identifying project risks, dependencies, and delivery approach.
- Strong understanding of enterprise content management systems.
- Ability to translate business needs into technical requirements.
- Experience working with enterprise architecture or solution architecture teams.
Nice to Have
- Experience with IBM Content Navigator.
- Experience with document management, records management, or workflow automation.
- Experience with FileNet upgrades, integrations, or cloud migration.
Why This Role
- High-leverage engagement: Shape project direction at the scoping stage, before delivery begins.
- Client-facing impact: Direct involvement in discovery calls, not buried in backend execution.
- Enterprise relevance: Work with enterprise content management systems that matter to large organizations.
- Focused scope: A clearly defined engagement centered on scoping and recommendations, not open-ended delivery.
