About the role
This role sits at the intersection of technology and the outdoors, owning requirements for Brandt's Go Outdoors hunt and fish products.
Responsibilities
- Lead interviews, workshops, and working sessions with internal stakeholders and customers to surface business needs and turn them into accurate, comprehensive requirements.
- Partner with Product Owners to shape user stories, acceptance criteria, and functional detail ahead of upcoming sprints.
- Document Business Requirements Documents (BRDs), user stories, workflows, and process diagrams that make business needs unmistakably clear.
- Convert layered business problems into technical and functional requirements that development teams can move on with confidence.
- Be the person teams turn to for clarity on requirements throughout the development lifecycle.
- Prioritize support: help Product Owners weigh business value, risk, dependencies, and effort when sequencing the backlog.
- 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.
- 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.

- Have worked specifically in govtech, civic tech, or another regulated/public-sector environment.
