This position is responsible for the creation of sound, complete business requirements for assigned projects. In additional this position will apply those requirements against our application testing methodology ensuring the end product is consistent with the original intent. This role will ensure business requirements are complete, thorough and tested. In pursuit of complete business requirements, this position will interview the sponsor(s) of the project as well as collateral contributors (stakeholders) of the project to document their needs and desires (requirements). This position is also responsible for helping contributors crystallize their thoughts to minimize the likelihood that key functionality or obvious control parameters are not omitted in the initial requirements document.

The Business Analyst will be expected to facilitate requirements discussions, capture information, document the requirements and obtain sign-off from stakeholders. Additionally this position will lead assigned projects through the testing phase ensuring that test cases are built which exercise the application against original requirements. It will be the responsibility of this position to ensure any new requirements identified in the testing phase are appropriately channeled through the change control process.
