Bonus - I'd expected lots of $0 bonuses in your future unless this role is special in some way I'm unaware of. Band - Ask the recruiter what band it is. I'm surprised it wasn't in the offer letter. But I'd guess b9 based on the base offer.

Do you have the official job title of the role? or is it just technical project manager?

Yes that’s the job title.

From what I've seen IBM won't do much in signing bonus. Average is $10k-$15k.

If it’s for B9, negotiate more. IBM is frugal and won’t increase your base much once you’re in. They may talk about profit sharing. Don’t count on it. Get 15K sign-on.
