Determine and help establish processes or patterns to ensure user requirements align with current system capabilities. Proactively identify cross-system dependencies, technical constraints, gaps, and system limitations in collaboration with engineering teams to ensure requirements are technically feasible and implementation-ready.

Support backlog grooming, sprint planning, demos, and pilot validation sessions.

Track progress across multiple AI initiatives, manage dependencies and risks, and maintain clear stakeholder communication.

Develop and maintain lightweight project plans, timelines, and status reporting to ensure AI initiatives remain aligned with business priorities and strategic objectives.

Required Qualifications

5+ years of Business Analysis or Business Systems Analysis experience in technology or software environments.

Strong requirements elicitation, documentation, and facilitation skills.
