Technical Business Analyst

About This Role:

We are seeking a Technical Business Analyst, Data & Advanced Analytics to serve as a critical bridge between business stakeholders and technical delivery teams in a biopharma environment. This role focuses on translating complex business problems into well-defined analytical use cases, data requirements, and technical specifications, while maintaining a strong hands-on understanding of the Databricks Lakehouse and advanced analytics solutions.

What You'll Do:

1) Business Analysis & Problem Framing

* Partner with business stakeholders in Commercial to understand objectives, pain points, and decision needs.

* Translate business questions into clearly defined analytics use cases, success metrics, and measurable outcomes.

* Lead requirements discovery, documentation, and validation, including functional, non‑functional, and data requirements.

2) Analytics & Data Translation

* Define data requirements, KPIs, metrics definitions, and calculation logic to ensure consistent and trusted insights.

* Collaborate with technical teams to shape data models, curated datasets, and semantic layers aligned to business needs.

* Review and validate analytics outputs (datasets, ML models) to ensure they meet business intent and quality expectations.

3) Databricks Platform & Technical Collaboration

* Act as a knowledgeable partner to engineering teams working on Databricks (Spark/SQL/Python), with the ability to:

* Read and validate SQL and logic used in transformations

* Understand data pipeline dependencies and data flows

* Participate meaningfully in design discussions and trade‑off decisions

* Support use cases involving advanced analytics such as decision engine, adoption journey, segmentation, or ML‑enabled insights, without being the primary model developer.

4) Delivery Ownership & Stakeholder Communication

* Own the end‑to‑end analytics delivery lifecycle from a BA perspective: intake → requirements → refinement → validation → adoption.

* Facilitate working sessions, backlog refinement, and prioritization discussions with cross‑functional teams.

* Communicate complex analytical concepts and results in clear, business‑friendly language for non‑technical audiences.

* Proven ability to translate business needs into data and analytics requirements.

* Exposure to advanced analytics or ML use cases.

* Hands‑on experience querying or validating data using SQL and/or Databricks notebooks.
