- Software Business Analyst to bridge global stakeholders and our engineering
- team—translating business needs into clear requirements, driving software
- process, and keeping delivery on track across distributed teams.
- As part of our expanding global engineering team, you will play a key role in
- shaping and supporting applications used across multiple sites worldwide. You
- will work closely with a California-based team, including a night-shift group
- aligned with your time zone, enabling seamless collaboration and continuous
- progress.
- We are looking for a business analyst who values teamwork and has experience
- working alongside development teams, gathering requirements, and helping move
- complex applications forward. This is not a message-passing role—success in this
- position requires building a genuine understanding of how our applications work
- and behave, so you can translate stakeholder needs into clear, actionable
- requirements for engineers.
- You will partner with stakeholders to understand their goals, document requests
- with the right level of detail, and help the development team deliver against
- them. You will also help facilitate our software process—tracking progress,
- surfacing and clearing blockers, and keeping work aligned. While this role is
- not primarily a coding role, a working understanding of modern application
- stacks (such as React and Tailwind on the frontend, and Node.js, Python, and
- RESTful APIs on the backend) will help you communicate effectively with
- engineers and ask the right questions. If you enjoy connecting business needs
- with high-quality software while supporting a globally distributed team, this is
- a great opportunity to make a meaningful impact.
RESPONSIBILITIES
- Collaborate with engineers, product managers, and stakeholders across global
teams to understand business needs and translate them into clear,
well-documented requirements
- Develop a working understanding of our applications and their behavior so you
can accurately represent how they function to both stakeholders and the
development team
- Gather, analyze, and document requests—asking clarifying questions,
identifying gaps, and ensuring requirements are complete before they reach
engineering
- Act as a bridge between stakeholders and developers, ensuring both sides
share a common understanding of scope, priorities, and expected outcomes
- Help facilitate the software development process by tracking progress,
maintaining visibility into work in flight, and keeping initiatives moving
- Proactively identify, surface, and help clear blockers so the team can
maintain continuous progress
- Participate in regular communication with California-based teams, including
overlap with night-shift operations, to ensure alignment and continuity
- Add value independently—analyzing problems, forming your own understanding,
and contributing insight rather than simply relaying information
- Support planning sessions, team discussions, and continuous improvement
initiatives
- Help document application behavior, processes, and decisions to strengthen
shared knowledge across the team
- QUALIFICATIONS
- Bachelor's degree in a relevant field (e.g., Business, Information Systems,
Computer Science), or equivalent practical experience in a business analyst
or similar role
- Strong communication skills, with the ability to effectively collaborate with
developers, product managers, and stakeholders across distributed teams
- Ability to work with globally distributed teams, including participation in
occasional off-hours meetings to maintain alignment across time zones
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to investigate
requests, identify gaps, and form independent conclusions
- Self-motivated, proactive, and comfortable working independently in a
fast-paced, team-oriented environment
- Familiarity with software development processes (e.g., Agile/Scrum) and tools
for tracking work and progress is a plus
- General familiarity with modern web application concepts and stacks is a
plus, but deep technical or coding expertise is not expected
