About the Role


We are seeking a Senior Business Analyst to lead requirements discovery, process analysis, stakeholder engagement, and solution definition for a complex cloud-native, event-driven Federal delivery initiative. This role will operate within an Agile environment and partner with product owners, business stakeholders, architects, engineers, QA teams, integration teams, DevSecOps teams, and project leadership to ensure business needs are translated into clear, testable, and actionable delivery artifacts. The Senior Business Analyst will provide leadership across requirements management, backlog refinement, UAT planning, documentation, change readiness, and user adoption while supporting delivery teams working with AWS-based services, event-driven integrations, APIs/RPC patterns, real-time user experiences, observability, and secure DevSecOps practices. Candidates do not need to be experts in every technology, but should be familiar with several of the tools, platforms, and concepts used in modern cloud-native delivery.

• Partner with product owners, architects, engineers, QA teams, integration teams, and DevSecOps stakeholders to translate business needs into scalable cloud-native platform capabilities.
• Lead analysis for appointment, scheduling, workflow, notification, data exchange, interoperability, and operational reporting use cases.
• Support delivery teams working with AWS, Kafka/MSK, event producers and consumers, APIs/RPC services, WebSocket-enabled user experiences, containerized services, CI/CD pipelines, and observability tools.
• Lead analysis of data requirements, event payloads, integration touchpoints, data quality needs, reporting expectations, and impacts to upstream and downstream systems.
• Support test strategy by defining test scenarios, reviewing test plans and scripts, coordinating defect triage, and ensuring acceptance criteria are validated.
• Plan and facilitate user acceptance testing, stakeholder demonstrations, feedback collection, readiness activities, and change impact discussions.
• Create and maintain comprehensive documentation, including requirements, process maps, user guides, training materials, release notes, knowledge articles, and operational support content.
• Assist project managers and product owners with estimation, prioritization, scheduling, scope management, dependency tracking, delivery risk identification, and stakeholder reporting.
• Mentor junior business analysts and help establish repeatable standards for requirements quality, documentation, stakeholder engagement, traceability, and Agile delivery support.
