Key Responsibilities
- Lead requirements gathering and analysis for complex, multi stakeholder software products, translating ambiguous or competing business needs into clear, actionable requirements.
- Own the requirements to release process across the full SDLC within an Agile (Scrum/Kanban) environment, coordinating closely with Product, Engineering, and QA.
- Break down complex features involving multiple system integrations or dependencies into well structured epics, user stories, and acceptance criteria.
- Partner with QA to define test strategy and acceptance criteria for complex scenarios, and personally execute functional, regression, and UAT testing where needed.
- Act as the go to analyst for the most technically or organizationally complex initiatives on the team.
- Facilitate Agile ceremonies and drive backlog prioritization decisions in collaboration with the Product Owner.
- Identify cross functional risks and dependencies early, and proactively manage trade offs among scope, timeline, and technical constraints.
- Mentor junior BAs/QA analysts and help establish best practices for requirements and testing on the team.
Required Qualifications
- 12+ years as a Business Analyst, with a track record on complex software products — not general business, infrastructure, or low complexity projects.
- Proven experience owning requirements across the full Agile SDLC on initiatives with significant technical complexity (e.g., multiple integrations, large stakeholder groups, or high risk releases).
- Hands on QA experience: test case design, test execution, defect tracking, and UAT coordination on complex features.
- Demonstrated ability to manage ambiguity and competing priorities across large, cross functional teams.
- Proficiency with Agile tooling (e.g., Jira, Azure DevOps, Rally) for backlog management and defect tracking.
- Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, including experience presenting to senior leadership.
- Ability to speak in detail about the complexity of specific products built — scale, integrations, team size, and your role across the SDLC.
Preferred Qualifications
- Certification in Business Analysis (CBAP or PMI PBA) and/or Agile (CSPO, CSM, PSM).
- ISTQB or equivalent QA/testing certification.
- Experience on SaaS or customer facing digital products at scale.
