1. Translate Business Needs into Clear, Testable System Requirements. Within the first 30–90 days, develop a working understanding of assigned applications, business processes, stakeholders, and software delivery practices. Participate in requirements discussions and facilitate small-group sessions to document business needs as clear use cases, user stories, acceptance criteria, and structured specifications for small to moderately complex work efforts. Collaborate with business partners and technical teams to identify ambiguities, dependencies, and gaps before requirements move into development. Success will be measured by stakeholder acceptance of requirements, completeness and testability of documentation, reduced requirements-related rework, and timely delivery of assigned analysis artifacts.
2. Deliver Accurate Systems, Data, and Reporting Analysis. Within the first 60–120 days, independently perform assigned data investigations and business reporting analyses using SQL, application data models, and available metadata. Write and validate basic to moderately complex SQL queries to examine data relationships, investigate discrepancies, and support business or system requirements. Work with relevant stakeholders to interpret findings and document the implications for application behavior, reporting, or proposed enhancements. Success will be measured by the accuracy and reproducibility of analytical results, timely completion of assigned investigations, and successful use of findings to support business or technical decisions.
3. Support Solution Validation and Successful Application Delivery. Within the first 90–150 days, contribute to the quality assurance approach for assigned application enhancements by translating requirements and acceptance criteria into appropriate validation scenarios. Collaborate with development, QA, and business stakeholders to verify that delivered functionality meets agreed requirements and to investigate discrepancies or defects.

Success will be measured by timely completion of commitments, increasing estimate accuracy, effective issue resolution, and positive stakeholder feedback on collaboration and communication.

Requirements: Business and Systems Analysis: Demonstrated ability to gather, analyze, translate, and document business and system requirements for software development or enhancement projects. Candidates should be comfortable producing use cases, user stories, acceptance criteria, and structured specifications. SQL and Data Analysis: Ability to write basic to moderately complex SQL queries, understand data models, interpret metadata, and investigate business reporting or application data issues. Software Development Methodologies: Working knowledge of common software development methodologies and the ability to participate effectively in structured analysis, design, development, testing, and implementation activities. Requirements Validation and QA: Ability to interpret acceptance criteria, contribute to a QA strategy, investigate discrepancies, and verify that application functionality satisfies business requirements. Facilitation and Coordination: Ability to facilitate small-group discussions, coordinate tasks for small teams, estimate work, track progress, resolve issues, and communicate status clearly. Communication and Problem-Solving: Strong written and verbal communication skills, critical thinking, listening skills, logical analysis, and the ability to develop positive relationships with business partners and technical colleagues. Health Insurance Business Knowledge: Willingness and ability to develop in-depth knowledge of health insurance terminology, concepts, and business processes. The JD emphasizes actively acquiring this knowledge rather than establishing prior health insurance experience as an absolute requirement. Education and Experience: Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Mathematics, Business Administration, or a related field and approximately three years of relevant business or systems analysis experience, or an equivalent combination of education and experience. Preferred Application Experience: Experience with DocuSign CLM and Beeline contingent workforce management software is strongly preferred. These platforms should be treated as important differentiators rather than mandatory qualifications unless the hiring manager confirms otherwise. Profile: The ideal candidate is a Systems Analyst with approximately three or more years of relevant experience who can independently manage assigned analysis activities while collaborating effectively with business partners and technical teams. The strongest candidates will demonstrate the ability to translate ambiguous business requests into clear, testable requirements, investigate data using SQL, interpret moderately complex documentation, and help validate delivered functionality. Candidates with practical experience supporting DocuSign CLM or Beeline will be particularly attractive, especially if they have personally participated in requirements gathering, application enhancements, reporting, defect resolution, or testing involving those platforms. During interviews, candidates should be asked to describe a specific application enhancement or business problem they personally analyzed, including the initial business need, requirements they documented, SQL or data analysis performed, stakeholders involved, acceptance criteria established, and final implementation outcome. The key differentiator is the ability to connect business requirements, data analysis, and system functionality while taking increasing ownership of moderately complex work.
