Job Description

Analysis (including Business Case)

  • Proactively build relationships, apply analytical techniques to elicit and validate business (product & service) needs ahead of demand.

  • Facilitate processes to ensure integrated requirements are socialized, understood & approved across the broad range of stakeholders to be impacted (including risk / governance forums, change council, scrum meetings / DevOps team capability building, solution design sessions etc.).
  • Understand & leverage knowledge on the organisations technical landscape, environment and broader architecture to define integration points across tech stacks for various requirements.
  • Work collaboratively with project / program teams, squads, scrum masters and engineers to define backlog, release & DevOps / project planning implications of the requirements development & roadmap.
