Reverse-engineer existing solutions to find gaps and formalize what’s undocumented

What you’ll own:
Requirements and specs for accounting processes and financial systems, written as user stories development teams can act on directly
Posting logic, GL structures, and fee mechanics for new and existing products
Analysis and documentation of systems with incomplete or missing documentation - you establish what exists before defining what needs to change
Alignment across finance, product, and engineering, including conflicts between business logic and technical constraints
Testing and acceptance, and every task through to production release
What makes you a strong fit:
2-3+ years as a System or Business Analyst, including work with financial systems or financial processes
Solid understanding of accounting principles, including the general ledger
Proven decomposition and system analysis skills: you can map complex processes and find what’s missing
