They work as part of a multi-disciplinary team. Many such teams will be modern “DevOps” style teams, which carry out the full set of stages across the whole solution lifecycle: requirements gathering, solution development, testing, implementation, and ongoing support. In more traditional organizations the team is likely to be focused more at one or other end of this broad set of activities. Such teams may well be in transition to a modern “DevOps” style team.
An IT Solutions Technician applies a professional methodology or framework to gather and analyze requirements; to design, develop, test, and implement IT solutions, and to provide ongoing support both directly to end-users and for the underlying IT services.

Some tasks may be very technical, others may be more analytical, business, or user-focused.
