- Break down business needs into clear, actionable stories with sufficient context, acceptance criteria, and dependencies.
- Continuously refine and prioritize the backlog based on business value, delivery needs, urgency, and technical dependencies.
- Work closely with Product and Engineering to clarify scope quickly and keep work moving without unnecessary blockers.
- Ensure the backlog remains current, visible,



and aligned with agreed priorities and expected outcomes.

Development & Agile Delivery

- Stay actively involved throughout the software development lifecycle, from requirement discovery through delivery and validation.
- Lead or facilitate agile ceremonies as needed and ensure the engineering team remains aligned on scope, priorities, and outcomes.
- Partner closely with engineers to answer questions, resolve ambiguity, surface dependencies, and unblock delivery.
- Support testing and validation, including UAT, to ensure delivered solutions meet business expectations and are usable.

Acting as a Primary Point of Contact

- Act as the connective point between Product, Engineering, and other business stakeholders for day-to-day delivery matters.
- Communicate status, risks, issues, dependencies, and decisions clearly and proactively to relevant stakeholders.
- Drive timely clarification and decision-making to support smooth execution and predictable delivery.

Communicating Business & Product Intent

- Develop a clear understanding of business objectives, user needs, and intended product outcomes.
- Translate business and product intent into structured requirements that engineering teams can understand and implement.
- Maintain alignment across Product, Engineering, and business stakeholders when priorities, requirements, or scope evolve.

Domain Knowledge & Business Understanding

- Experience working in Institutional Investment Management or a related financial services environment is preferred.
- Exposure to Asset Management, Public Markets, Private Markets, and/or Investment Manager Research is desirable.




- Apply domain context pragmatically while prioritizing strong analysis, structured problem-solving, and effective delivery execution.

Must-Have Skills:

- Solid business analysis fundamentals, including requirement elicitation, analysis, documentation, and validation.
- Proven experience writing high-quality user stories, acceptance criteria, and functional requirements for engineering teams.
- Strong backlog management, prioritization, and agile delivery experience.
- Excellent communication, stakeholder management, facilitation, and collaboration skills.
- Structured analytical thinking, problem-solving ability, and comfort working with ambiguity.

- Experience with story and backlog management tools such as Jira, Azure DevOps (ADO), or similar.
