Senior Business Analyst

Description Position Summary Precise Software Solutions, Inc. is seeking a Senior Business Analyst to support the execution of a large-scale federal IT delivery program, while also owning requirements analysis and documentation for the program's backlog. This role requires tracking with hands-on business analysis, making it well suited for someone who wants both delivery-management exposure and ownership of requirements quality. The ideal candidate is highly organized, detail-oriented, and analytically strong, with enough technical fluency to translate stakeholder needs into clear, testable requirements and to follow delivery conversations accurately. Must be USC/GC/EAD with ability to obtain a public trust clearance. This is a hybrid position with occasional office/site visits in the Rockville/Silver Spring area. Key Responsibilities Lead requirements-gathering sessions with client and external stakeholders, translating business needs into clear, well-structured user stories, acceptance criteria, and functional requirements. Conduct gap analysis against existing platform capabilities. Triage incoming requests from external partners, review with the team, and route to the appropriate decision authority before work begins. Lead backlog grooming sessions, driving requirement readiness and prioritization discussions in coordination with the Product Owner and technical leads Develop and maintain process flows, data mapping documentation, and requirements traceability matrices linking requirements to design, test cases, and acceptance criteria. Facilitate design and requirements walkthroughs with business and technical stakeholders, capturing decisions and open questions for follow-up. Maintain and update core program artifacts, including the risk/issue log, decision and change log, and action-item tracker, ensuring entries are current and consistently formatted. Manage integration testing schedules, technical working sessions, and requirements feasibility assessments across client, partner, and vendor teams, tailoring communication and technical detail appropriately to each audience. Coordinate meeting logistics for recurring program forums (sprint reviews, planning meetings, governance sessions, and stakeholder working groups), including scheduling, agenda preparation, minute-taking, and distribution of follow-up actions. Track open items and commitments across multiple concurrent external stakeholder relationships, following up proactively to ensure timely closure and escalating items at risk of missing a deadline. Support user acceptance testing by developing test scenarios tied to documented requirements and coordinating stakeholder validation of results. Analyze recurring stakeholder requests or pain points to identify patterns suitable for standardized or reusable solutions rather than one-off fixes. Document business rules, workflow configurations, and rationale for approved requirement decisions to support institutional knowledge continuity. Requirements Prior experience in a business analyst role on federal IT or technology delivery programs, with demonstrated ownership of requirements documentation and stakeholder facilitation. Exceptional organizational skills, with a demonstrated ability to track and follow through on a high volume of action items, commitments, and deadlines across multiple concurrent workstreams. Strong analytical skills, with experience translating ambiguous business needs into structured, testable requirements. Comfortable engaging with a wide range of external stakeholders professionally and proactively, with strong written and verbal communication and facilitation skills. Solid technical fluency — able to engage in discussions involving system architecture, integrations, data mapping, or testing, even without a hands‑on engineering background. Experience with Agile ceremonies and artifacts (sprints, backlogs, Definition of Ready/Done, user stories, acceptance criteria) required. Familiarity with project and requirements‑tracking tools such as JIRA, Confluence, SharePoint, or comparable platforms. Strong proficiency in standard office and reporting tools (e.g., Excel, PowerPoint, Word, Visio or equivalent for process mapping). Experience supporting reporting, documentation, or requirements work for a federal government client is a plus. Bachelor's degree in a technical field (computer science, information systems, engineering, or related discipline) preferred; CBAP, CAPM, or Scrum‑related certification a plus.
