Business Analyst Go Outdoors

About the role

This role sits at the intersection of technology and the outdoors: you'll own requirements for Brandt's Go Outdoors hunt and fish products, working across the full range of agency programs that depend on our platform during the highest-traffic moments of the season.

Responsibilities

• Requirements Gathering: Lead interviews, workshops, and working sessions with internal stakeholders and customers to surface business needs and turn them into accurate, comprehensive requirements.
• Backlog Refinement: Partner with Product Owners to shape user stories, acceptance criteria, and functional detail ahead of upcoming sprints.
• Documentation: Produce and maintain Business Requirements Documents (BRDs), user stories, workflows, and process diagrams that make business needs unmistakably clear.
• Translation of Needs: Convert layered business problems into technical and functional requirements that development teams can move on with confidence.
• Subject Matter Expertise: Be the person teams turn to for clarity on requirements throughout the development lifecycle.
• Prioritization Support: Help Product Owners weigh business value, risk, dependencies, and effort when sequencing the backlog.
• Stakeholder Collaboration: Align Product Managers and other stakeholders around shared business goals and delivery plans.
• Cross-Functional Communication: Bridge business, technical, and QA conversations so everyone is building toward the same outcome.
• Ambiguity Resolution: Spot gaps, edge cases, and inconsistencies before they become rework, and resolve them with sound analytical judgment.
• Agile Participation: Show up fully in sprint planning, backlog grooming, reviews, and retrospectives as a core part of the delivery team.
• Root Cause Analysis: Dig into issues to find what's really driving them and recommend process or system improvements.
• Standards & Best Practices: Keep business analysis work consistent and high-quality across templates, tools, and teams, and help raise the bar for others.
• QA Collaboration: Validate requirements with QA, review test cases, and confirm delivered functionality actually meets the business need.

Requirements

• 4+ years of experience in business analysis, systems analysis, or an equivalent role within a technology product or services organization.
• A demonstrated ability to gather, analyze, and document functional requirements independently, with minimal hand-holding.
• Experience leading or significantly contributing to backlog refinement on cross-functional teams, including writing detailed user stories and acceptance criteria.
• Proficiency with Agile tools and process documentation (process flows, data mapping, use case modeling) used as a matter of course, not a stretch.
• Solid customer-facing communication skills, including experience navigating sensitive or high-visibility conversations.
• Strong analytical instincts: you're comfortable sitting with ambiguity long enough to find the actual root cause.
• Strong analytical instincts: you're comfortable sitting with ambiguity long enough to find the actual root cause.
• Strong Candidates May Also:
• Have mentored or informally guided less experienced analysis or be ready to start doing so.
• Have worked specifically in gov tech, civic tech, or another regulated / public-sector environment.
• Bring exposure to e-commerce, ticketing, or reservation systems where transaction volume and edge cases matter.
• Have experience standing up or improving BA standards and templates for a growing team.

Qualifications

• This Role Probably Isn't for You If:
• You want fully scoped, unambiguous tickets handed to you.
• A meaningful part of this job is creating clarity where there isn't any yet.
• You'd rather stay heads-down in documentation than spend real time in stakeholder conversations.
• This role lives at the table, not just behind the BRD.
• You need a large, established BA practice to plug into.
• You'll be helping shape what “good” looks like here, not just following an existing playbook.
• Mission doesn't matter to you.
