ITC is seeking a Senior Service Now Business Analyst to lead requirements gathering and process design for our federal agency clients. Serving as the gatekeeper of the product backlog, the Senior Service Now Business Analyst ensures no user story reaches sprint planning without meeting the Definition of Ready. This role bridges federal mission requirements and the technical teams who build against them-mentoring junior analysts and developers, conducting peer reviews of functional designs, and advising government stakeholders on Service Now best practices to avoid customizations that create long-term technical debt.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Requirements Gathering & Management
  • Lead client workshops and focus groups to elicit, analyze, and document business requirements aligned to agency mission goals.
  • Translate high-level business needs into comprehensive user stories, acceptance criteria, and functional specifications within an Agile/Scrum framework.
  • Conduct gap analysis between current legacy processes and Service Now out-of-the-box functionality.
  • Partner with the Agile Coach to design, document, and implement Agile processes and SOPs that drive consistency across all Service Now delivery teams.
• Quality Assurance & Mentorship
  • Serve as backlog gatekeeper, reviewing all user stories for accuracy, completeness, and ambiguity to ensure nothing enters sprint planning without meeting the Definition of Ready.
  • Mentor junior analysts and developers on business context, federal domain constraints, and Service Now best practices.
  • Conduct peer reviews of functional designs and test scripts to maintain quality standards across the delivery team.
• Solution Design & Process Mapping
  • Develop process maps, workflows, and data models that visualize end-to-end service delivery.
  • Advise government stakeholders on Service Now best practices, steering them away from customizations that create technical debt.
  • Collaborate with system architects to confirm functional designs are technically feasible.
• Federal Compliance & Governance
  • Ensure solution designs meet federal IT standards, including Section 508 accessibility and FISMA/NIST security controls.
• Testing, Training & Adoption
  • Develop and execute User Acceptance Testing (UAT) plans, including writing test scripts and coordinating testing sessions with government personnel.
  • Produce federal-grade deliverables, including SOPs, user guides, and training materials.

• 5+ years of experience as a business analyst,…
