- Support complex system integrations by documenting data mappings, business rules, system interactions, and upstream/downstream dependencies.
- Bridge business and technical perspectives to ensure solutions are valuable, usable, scalable, and maintainable.
- Evaluate current-state processes and systems, work with stakeholders to define a desired future state, and perform gap analysis to identify solution options and recommendations.
- Write and refine epics, user stories, acceptance criteria, and backlog items as part of an Agile delivery team.
- Coordinate and support integration testing, system testing, and user acceptance testing (UAT) activities, including requirements traceability and validation.
