In this article, we shed some light on the distinct but complementary roles played by the IT professionals at the heart of the Vendere team.
IT professions
While the IT professions of programmer, developer analyst, integration analyst and functional analyst may seem similar, and do in fact share some common ground, they each have a unique set of skills and responsibilities that set them apart from one another. In this post, we will look at the differences between these professionals and describe the role that each plays at Vendere Group.
Programmers
Let’s start with programmers, whose role is perhaps the most well known and who are the backbone of IT. With a solid understanding of algorithms and logic, programmers write, debug and maintain the code that powers applications and software.
Developer analysts
Developer analysts are programmers who create solutions that meet the specific user needs identified by functional analysts. This role requires a deep understanding of the technical aspects of programming as well as the ability to analyze and interpret user requirements. Developer analysts work closely with the other IT professionals to ensure that code is efficient and well structured.
Functional analysts
Next, we have functional analysts, who focus on understanding user needs, planning and overseeing the development of suitable solutions, and ensuring that the delivered solutions align with the customer’s organizational goals. Functional analysts act as a liaison between end users and technical teams and are generally not involved in creating code.
Integration analysts
Finally, integration analysts design and implement solutions to ensure different software systems can communicate with one another. They play a crucial role in streamlining workflows and data exchange across an organization’s IT infrastructure.
All these IT professions at Vendere Group
The Vendere team comprises all these professionals. Our functional analysts work closely with clients all over Canada to understand their needs and translate these needs into specifications for their customized software solutions. Our programmers and developer analysts then use their specialized knowledge of Dynamics 365 and PowerApps to build and refine software solutions that meet each client’s specifications. This is followed by the analysis, documenting and testing of software components, including databases, web services, DLLs, executables and mobile applications by our integration analysts. In essence, they are responsible for implementing, personalizing and troubleshooting the software solution to ensure that it runs smoothly.
As you can see, the roles are distinct and focus on different aspects of software development. However, all four IT professions require robust knowledge of programming, computer languages and software architecture.
