• Support engineering teams during implementation by clarifying requirements, validating proposed solutions, and ensuring alignment with approved specifications.
• Collaborate with QA teams to review test scenarios and support User Acceptance Testing (UAT), ensuring delivered functionality meets business expectations.
• Evaluate requirement changes and communicate their potential impact on scope, priorities, and delivery timelines to relevant stakeholders.
• 5+ years of professional experience as a business analyst, including experience supporting software development projects and Agile delivery teams.
• Strong experience gathering, analyzing, documenting, and managing business and functional requirements.
• Proven ability to translate high-level business objectives into detailed epics, user stories, and clear, testable acceptance criteria.
