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

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

Nice to Have

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
