Role: Technical / Functional Business Analyst
Location: New York City, NY(Onsite)
Job Type: Full Time
Job Description
What You’ll Do
- Lead discovery with stakeholders to understand current-state workflows, pain points, controls, and desired outcomes.
- Distill ambiguity into clarity: write crisp problem statements, scope boundaries, assumptions, risks, and success measures.
- Translate business needs into delivery-ready artifacts: process flows, user stories, acceptance criteria, and non-functional requirements.
- Partner with engineers and product owners to refine requirements, resolve tradeoffs, and keep execution unblocked.
- Support testing and validation: define test scenarios, help with UAT coordination, and ensure delivered features match intent.
- Maintain traceability: align requirements to outcomes and support auditability where needed (controls, approvals, data lineage).
- Use AI tools responsibly to accelerate analysis and documentation (summarization, drafting, comparison, gap analysis), while validating accuracy and protecting sensitive information.
- Communicate clearly and consistently: provide status, decisions, and open questions in a way that builds trust.
What We’re Looking For
- 5+ years of experience as a Business Analyst, Functional Analyst, Technical BA, or similar role in software delivery.
- Strong discovery and requirements skills: you can move from conversations to structured, testable requirements quickly.
- Comfort in technical discussions: APIs, data flows, basic system behavior, and how to ask the right questions of engineers.
- Excellent written communication—your artifacts are clear, concise, and usable by engineering and business partners.
- Strong stakeholder management: you build rapport, handle conflict professionally, and create alignment without force.
- Ability to think in workflows and data: process mapping, edge cases, exceptions, and operational controls.
- High integrity and maturity: you are transparent, consistent, and trusted—especially under pressure.
Nice to Have
- Experience in operations, finance, accounting, or control-oriented domains (reconciliations, reporting, hand-offs, approvals).
- Familiarity with agile delivery (stories, backlogs, iteration planning), while being comfortable in less mature environments.
- Experience working with data stores and queries (SQL basics), or partnering on reporting and analytics needs.
- Exposure to event-driven or workflow-based systems (messaging, orchestration), and understanding
- how these affect requirements and audit trails.
Why Join
- Work close to the business, on problems that materially improve how teams operate and make decisions.
- Join a delivery-focused team that values clarity, transparency, and practical outcomes over theater.
- Build a strong foundation in a domain where precision matters—skills that remain valuable even as tools and AI evolve.
- Use AI as a productivity multiplier while developing the human strengths it can’t replace: judgment, context, trust-building, and decision-making.
