The Business Systems Analyst (BSA) converts ambiguous business problems into structured, execution-ready technical requirements, driving alignment between business strategy and Application Delivery. Operating across CRM (Salesforce), ERP, and core operational platforms, this role champions application delivery maturity by standardizing intake discipline, optimizing process mapping, and ensuring solution quality through rigorous functional testing within fast-paced sprint cycles.
Responsibilities
•Lead discovery and clarification efforts across ambiguous or evolving initiatives, ensuring requirements are validated, documented, and aligned to agreed delivery readiness standards.
•Map current-state and future-state business and system processes to identify functional gaps, dependencies, handoffs, and downstream impacts prior to development.
•Promote and educate on the use of standardized intake frameworks, ensuring every initiative enters the engineering pipeline with a clearly defined scope, explicit acceptance criteria, and established business priorities.
•Support the design of scalable, process-driven solutions across CRM, ERP, Customer Experience Portals, Lead-to-Cash, Field Service, and Revenue Management processes that improve operational efficiency, data consistency, and customer experience.
•Partner with developers, architects, and business stakeholders to evaluate solution options, clarify trade-offs, and ensure solutions are practical, scalable, and aligned to business needs.
•Support end-to-end solution quality by validating requirements, acceptance criteria, and delivered functionality through stakeholder review, sprint QA testing, and UAT activities.
•Proactively surface risks, inefficiencies, unclear ownership, and cross-functional dependencies early in the lifecycle to strengthen execution planning and reduce downstream delivery issues.
•Provide continuity of support across the deployment lifecycle, assisting stakeholders through User Acceptance Testing (UAT) and post-go-live hypercare.
•Establish and promote consistent intake, requirements, and documentation standards that improve delivery predictability and reduce rework.
