Role Overview
We are seeking an autonomous, driven, and highly articulate Senior Technical Business Analyst to play a pivotal role in designing and delivering a next-generation web platform. Operating in a high-velocity environment with tight timelines, you will serve as the bridge between business strategy, user experience, and technical execution. This is not a traditional passive requirements-gathering role. You must be comfortable taking high-level, ambiguous concepts, conducting independent research, and translating them into tangible visual mockups, detailed user stories, and actionable technical specifications—all with minimal oversight.
Key Responsibilities
- Drive Strategy & Visual Discovery: Take raw product concepts and independently create wireframes, UI mockups, and process flow diagrams to guide discussions with executive leadership and volunteer/stakeholder groups
- Lead Stakeholder Alignment: Facilitate requirements-gathering workshops and working sessions independently. Communicate complex technical workflows clearly to non-technical business partners
- Independent Research & Problem-Solving: Conduct market research, system analysis, and competitive benchmarking to determine optimal features, information architecture, and UI/UX patterns for the platform
- Technical Backlog Management: Translate high-level business goals into precise, actionable epics, user stories, and acceptance criteria (using Jira/Azure DevOps) for engineering teams
- Define Access & Hierarchy Architecture: Analyze complex organizational structures, roles, and privileges to design robust role-based access control (RBAC) and content governance models
- Cross-Functional Execution: Collaborate daily with solution architects, UI/UX designers, project managers, and third-party vendor teams to capture any requirement or design dependencies
Requirements
- Autonomous Execution: Proven track record of operating independently in fast-paced environments with steep completion targets and minimal day-to-day guidance
- Prototyping & Visualizing Tools: Hands-on experience using wireframing and prototyping tools (e.g., Figma, Miro, Balsamiq, Lucidchart, or Visio) to visualize ideas and drive stakeholder consensus
- Exceptional Communication Skills: Superior written, verbal, and presentation skills with demonstrated success in translating technical concepts for business leaders and non-technical stakeholders
- Web & Technical Aptitude: 6+ years of experience as a Technical Business Analyst supporting web platforms, Content Management Systems (CMS), API integrations, or enterprise software implementations
- Data & Access Modeling: Familiarity with role-based permissions, user entity hierarchies, and content governance workflows
