4Sight Technical Environment Manager

JOBstream is looking for a 4Sight Technical Environment Manager.

Project Outline:
A new SBL platform is required for Global Markets solution(s). 4Sight has been selected as its main Front-to-Finance solution including the Risk functionality.

The implementation of 4Sight requires the realization of a variety of development environments and several development streets. These environments are used by Information Services colleagues to create (Java) interfaces, and (4Sight) configuration changes. After creation, these parts are integrated in one integration environment owned by the Test and Deploy team. This is then handed over to I&O who will take it through the other environments for User Acceptance testing and non-functional tests, and finally promote it into production (PROD). The Environment Managers will have to create and maintain the environments owned and used by IS. Managing these environments requires interaction with the different development teams, the release manager, the test manager, the requirements manager and the I&O Environment Manager.
