  • Lead business analysis activities including requirements elicitation, process mapping, documentation of functional/non-functional requirements, and stakeholder alignment.
  • Develop high-quality user stories in Jira using standard formats including Gherkin (Given/When/Then), acceptance criteria, and Definition of Done.
  • Serve as Scrum Master for the team, facilitating Scrum ceremonies such as Sprint Planning, Daily Standups, Sprint Reviews, Sprint Retrospectives, and backlog refinement.
  • Support teams in transitioning from Kanban or hybrid workflows to a consistent Scrum-based delivery approach.
  • Partner with technical teams to ensure clarity around event-driven architecture components, integrations, and data flows.
  • Work with Product Owners to maintain a prioritized and groomed backlog aligned with business value.
  • Identify risks, dependencies, and impediments; drive resolutions and follow through to completion.
  • Enable continuous improvement by coaching team members on Agile practices, metrics, and delivery discipline.
  • Provide visibility into sprint performance through reporting and metrics to stakeholders and leadership.

Required Qualifications To Be Successful In This Role

  • 5+ years of experience as a Business analyst in an Agile environment
  • 2+ years performing Scrum Master responsibilities for one or more teams
  • Strong experience writing user stories in Jira using Gherkin format, acceptance criteria, and Definition of Done
  • Practical understanding of event-driven architecture concepts, message flows, and integration patterns.

The application period for this position is through January 15, 2026.
