- Analyze data dependencies, upstream and downstream impacts, sequencing requirements, and potential gaps.
- Collaborate with architects and developers to understand current-state systems and document future-state solutions.
- Facilitate requirements reviews and solution walkthroughs with business and technology teams.
- Identify gaps, inconsistencies, edge cases, and unresolved requirements.
- Maintain full traceability from business requirements through development, testing, and production implementation.
- Partner closely with QA teams to ensure test cases and test scenarios align with functional and technical requirements.
- Provide ongoing support to development and testing teams by clarifying requirements and expected system behavior.
Required Experience
- 7+ years of Business Analysis experience, preferably within financial services, banking, or Capital Markets technology environments.
- Proven experience translating complex business requirements into detailed user stories and acceptance criteria.
- Strong experience working directly with developers, architects, data engineers, and technical teams.
- Deep understanding of data flows, system integrations, APIs, interfaces, databases, files, and messaging technologies.
- Ability to analyze and document complex enterprise applications and interdependent systems.
- Experience creating detailed functional and technical documentation.
- Strong SQL and data analysis skills are highly preferred.
- Ability to independently investigate systems, processes, and data to uncover requirements and dependencies.
- Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and organizational skills with exceptional attention to detail.
- Strong communication skills and the ability to bridge the gap between business and technology stakeholders.
