• Facilitate workshops with government stakeholders, resolve conflicting requirements, and obtain formal sign-offs.
• Map as-is / to-be processes; identify dependencies, edge cases, and non-functional requirements (security, privacy, audit, performance).
• Apply AI tools (LLMs, prompt engineering, AI-assisted documentation) to speed up analysis and drafting, with sound judgment on validation and sensitive government data.
• Support UAT, bridge business and technical teams, and ensure delivered solutions meet business objectives.
• Mentor junior business analysts and uphold the team’s BA methodology and standards.

• Backlog management and agile delivery with Azure DevOps (or Jira).
• Excellent stakeholder management, facilitation, and bilingual communication (Arabic & English).
• Hands-on AI proficiency: prompt engineering and AI-assisted analysis / documentation, with disciplined validation and data-sensitivity judgment.
• Familiarity with eServices, digital-government standards, and the UAE government context.

Preferred (nice to have)

• Experience with ECM / document management, omni-channel service delivery, and UAE PASS integration.
