What You’ll Do

You will own the analysis work on data and technology projects from first conversation through user acceptance and go-live.

• Lead requirements elicitation with business stakeholders, technical teams, and client leadership through interviews, workshops, and working sessions.
• Translate business needs into clear, testable documentation — business requirements, functional specifications, user stories, and acceptance criteria.
• Map current and future state processes and make the gaps between them visible and specific enough to act on.
• Profile and analyze source data to confirm that requirements are actually supportable, including writing your own SQL to check assumptions.
• Build source-to-target mappings, data dictionaries, and business rule documentation alongside data engineering teams.
• Serve as the connective tissue between business and technical stakeholders, keeping both groups working from the same understanding.
• Support agile delivery — refine the backlog, size and clarify stories, and participate in sprint ceremonies with the delivery team.
• Plan and coordinate user acceptance testing, including test scenarios, business tester onboarding, and defect triage through resolution.
• Identify risks, dependencies, and scope changes early, and bring them to the project manager with options rather than just problems.
• Present findings, recommendations, and status to client stakeholders in language they can act on.

Requirements

• 7+ years of business analysis experience on IT or data delivery projects.
• Demonstrated ability to run requirements sessions with mixed business and technical audiences and drive them to decisions.
• Strong documentation skills across BRDs, functional specs, user stories, and acceptance criteria.
• Working SQL skills — enough to profile data, validate assumptions, and investigate discrepancies independently.
• Experience with process mapping and workflow documentation using tools such as Visio or Lucidchart.
• Hands-on experience in agile delivery, including backlog refinement and sprint ceremonies.
• Experience planning and supporting user acceptance testing through sign-off.
• Excellent written and verbal communication, with the judgment to adjust for the audience.
• Bachelor's degree preferred, or equivalent professional experience.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience on data warehouse, ETL, or business intelligence and reporting projects.
• Background in government, public health, or healthcare environments.
• Familiarity with Medicaid, public health data systems, HIPAA, or state and federal reporting requirements.
• Proficiency with Azure DevOps, Jira, or Confluence for backlog and documentation management.
• Exposure to data governance, data quality, or master data management initiatives.
• Prior consulting or client-facing delivery experience.
• CBAP, PMI-PBA, or agile certifications.
