As the Senior Business Requirements Analyst and acting Product Owner, you will play a hybrid techno-functional role, bridging the gap between business and technical teams. You will collaborate with stakeholders to define requirements, oversee product development, and ensure data-driven solutions align with business goals.

The ideal candidate will bring strong leadership, techno-functional experience, requirements analysis skills, and UI/UX knowledge. Proven ability to work with data and analytics teams to enable actionable insights is critical. Recent FDA-related experience is required.

This is a hybrid position, which includes a 3-day on-site requirement at either the GDIT office in Gaithersburg, MD or the FDA office in Silver Spring, MD.

• Data Analysis & Insights: Analyze and interpret data to validate business requirements and support data-driven decision-making. Collaborate with analytics teams to define and deliver data-rich solutions.
• User Stories & Acceptance Criteria: Develop detailed user stories, process flows, and acceptance criteria to support sprint planning and team execution. Ensure requirements are translated into actionable technical deliverables.
• UI/UX Design & Documentation: Create wireframes, process flows, and design mockups to align functional requirements with user experience goals. Collaborate with design teams to ensure implemented solutions adhere to best practices.
• Testing & Validation: Lead functional testing, user acceptance testing (UAT), and data validation efforts to ensure requirements have been adequately implemented.
• Collaboration Tools: Leverage tools such as JIRA, Confluence, and other project management or data analytics tools to manage requirements, document progress, and facilitate collaboration.
• Process Improvements: Proactively recommend process improvements to enhance product delivery, increase efficiency, and ensure scalability.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree and 10+ years of business analysis experience within the IT industry.
• Recent FDA-related experience in a similar or related capacity is required.
• 6+ years of experience supporting Federal Government agencies or projects.
• Hands-on experience with data requirements, including working with analytics teams to define data models, reporting structures, and dashboards.
• Proficiency in UI/UX design tools to create wireframes, mockups, and process flows.
• Strong understanding of Agile development methodologies (SCRUM), including managing backlogs and leading sprint planning sessions.
• Experience managing collaboration tools such as Atlassian suite (JIRA, Confluence) and familiarity with data tools such as Tableau, Power BI, or SQL.

Desired Qualifications

• Professional Agile certification (e.g., Certified ScrumMaster, PMI-ACP).
• Experience working with Commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) products such as Appian, Salesforce, or Pega.
• Knowledge of integrating applications with enterprise data solutions or low-code platforms like Appian.
• Expertise with data governance, analytics, and visualization tools to enable and validate actionable insights.

Attributes for Success

• Strong leadership skills to drive requirement delivery and support cross-functional teams effectively.
