An established sports retail and e-commerce company is hiring a Technical Business Analyst to sit between the Product Owner, business stakeholders, and the dev team.

  • Write user stories and acceptance criteria in testable formats (Given/When/Then)
  • Break large features into developer-ready tasks and support backlog grooming
  • Serve as the first point of clarification for developers instead of routing every question back to the business
  • Work with QA to make sure test cases actually match the acceptance criteria
  • Flag edge cases, dependencies, and integration risks before they hit development
  • Maintain documentation, workflows, and user flows so the team isn't relying on tribal knowledge

What you need

  • Experience as a Business Analyst or Technical Analyst on software development projects
  • Strong grasp of Agile (Scrum, Kanban)
  • Comfortable writing user stories and testable acceptance criteria
  • Hands-on with Jira, Azure DevOps, or similar backlog tools
  • Can build user flows or process diagrams in Figma, Lucidchart, or Miro
  • Working knowledge of web application architecture, LAMP stack familiarity is a plus
  • Sharp attention to detail, good at catching gaps before they become dev problems

  • Familiarity with UML or BPMN diagrams

  • Experience working across multiple stakeholders on complex integrations
