This is not a documentation-only role. You’ll help shape solutions, challenge assumptions, think through complex business scenarios, identify edge cases, and ensure every feature is fully defined before development begins.

What You’ll Do

Requirements & Analysis

• Gather and analyze business requirements from Product, Customer Success, Sales, Support, and other stakeholders.
• Conduct customer interviews and discovery sessions to understand business processes, workflows, pain points, and opportunities.
• Analyze existing workflows and identify opportunities to improve efficiency, usability, and customer experience.
• Research competitor products and industry best practices to help shape product improvements.
• Challenge assumptions and recommend simpler, more effective solutions where appropriate.

Product Delivery

• Own the quality and completeness of business requirements, ensuring engineering teams receive implementation-ready specifications before development begins.
• Translate business needs into detailed functional requirements, user stories, business rules, workflows, acceptance criteria, and functional specifications.
• Document current and future-state business processes using diagrams, process flows, and supporting documentation.
• Identify risks, dependencies, edge cases, exceptions, and process gaps early in the planning process.
• Lead backlog refinement for assigned initiatives and ensure stories are ready before sprint planning.
• Collaborate closely with Product Managers, Engineering, Design, and QA throughout the software development lifecycle.
• Clarify requirements during implementation and help resolve functional questions raised by engineering.
• Validate completed features to ensure they solve the original business problem and meet documented requirements before release.

Continuous Improvement

• Continuously improve documentation standards, requirement quality, and business analysis practices.
• Leverage AI tools to improve research, analysis, documentation, and day-to-day productivity.
• Help build a culture of clear thinking, high-quality requirements, and efficient product delivery.

What You’ll Bring

• 4+ years of experience as a Business Analyst, Functional Analyst, Systems Analyst, Product Owner, or similar role within a B2B SaaS company.
• Proven experience gathering, analyzing, and documenting business and functional requirements for software products.
• Strong analytical, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills.
• Strong systems thinking with the ability to understand how changes in one area impact a complex software platform.
• Experience creating user stories, business process diagrams, workflows, use cases, business rules, and acceptance criteria.
• Strong understanding of Agile software development processes.
• Experience working closely with engineering teams throughout the software development lifecycle.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills with exceptional attention to detail.
• Strong stakeholder management and facilitation skills.
• Experience using Jira, Confluence, Figma, Lucidchart, Miro, or similar collaboration tools.
• Regular user of AI tools such as ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Cursor, or similar to improve productivity and documentation.
• Curiosity, ownership, and a continuous improvement mindset.

Nice to Have

• Experience working with ERP, accounting, financial management, procurement, estimating, or project management software.
• Experience in the construction technology industry.
• Experience with SQL or basic data analysis.
• Experience conducting usability testing or customer research.
• Experience working in a startup or scale-up environment.
