• Communicate effectively between business and technical teams, often acting as a liaison or proxy Product Owner.
• Support and coordinate UAT activities and contribute to change readiness planning.

Experience

• 5+ years in systems analysis with successful project delivery experience.
• 5+ years in the insurance industry (P&C strongly).
• Experience working with cloud-based solutions (preferably Azure).
• Familiarity with system integrations, data migrations, and multi-vendor environments.

Qualifications
