JavaScript Job: Graduate: IBM Technology, Client Engineering

Introduction
Client Technical Specialists (CTP) are the technical experts and advisors to clients, IBM sales teams and/or IBM Business Partners. As a CTP you understand the client's business requirements, technical requirements and/or competitive landscape. You apply your business insights, build and maintain client relationships, incorporate hardware, software and services into client-valued solutions and ensure client readiness for the implementation of technical solutions. This is an opportunity to shape the future for both IBM and its clients. Start your journey now!

Your Role and Responsibilities
Welcome to Client Engineering! We are an innovation team that prove IBM's technology and services through co-creation with clients. We help bring IBM technology to life with a multi-disciplinary team of designers, architects, developers and data scientists.

With our mantra of "show not tell", our work can take many forms from a simple demo, to creating a minimum viable product (MVP) that might end up as a production application. It's a dynamic and exciting environment built on a methodology which encompasses design thinking, Agile and DevOps practices.

We are looking for self-motivated, enthusiastic people who want to build innovative solutions using cloud technologies. You'll need to have a passion for technology and thrive in team environments. Being able to work with clients and solve problems is a must too.

In Client Engineering no two days are the same. Are you someone who thinks lifelong learning and problem-solving skills are more than just buzzwords? Do you love working in diverse teams, and find different viewpoints and backgrounds enriching rather than inhibiting? If this sounds like you, then we'd love to hear from you!

Your Role and Responsibilities
It's not a pure developer role and it's certainly not a system admin role. Instead, on any given day you might be doing something like:

• Writing a Terraform script to deploy Infrastructure as Code
• Presenting progress at a weekly client playback
• Giving a demo of an IBM Cloud Pak capability in a customer workshop

Our projects usually run somewhere between a couple of days and a couple of months. Their purpose is to inspire, to showcase IBM technology and to let our clients experience how they themselves can use our technology to make a difference in their business. Sounds exciting? We certainly think so.

This is not a remote position and you will be required to be based in the London office.
Positions to start in July or September 2023.
