Business Operations Analyst II

Your job

In this role, you’ll own core and advanced business analysis across medium-to-large projects or complex work streams, maintaining a single source of truth for requirements, flows, decisions, and risks. You’ll partner with project teams and cross-functional stakeholders to run discovery through interviews, workshops, and shadowing, translating needs into structured requirements. You’ll create end-to-end process maps, RACI matrices, and SIPOC diagrams, documenting measurable acceptance criteria and non-functional requirements.

You’ll leverage AI and automation to accelerate analysis, identify opportunities to reduce manual effort, and ensure quality. You’ll coordinate dependencies across teams, track decisions and assumptions, and align stakeholders on scope, timeline, and risks. Additionally, you’ll support queue work and UAT to meet SLAs, ensure solution readiness, and contribute to playbooks and handoffs.
