Senior Business Analyst (LATAM)

What You'll Do

As a Senior Business Analyst, you will lead collaboration with customers, business stakeholders, and technology teams to deliver initiatives aligned to product strategy and business goals. This role combines product-oriented leadership with strong business analysis rigor to own requirement decisions, improve delivery outcomes, and ensure solutions provide measurable value. You will drive cross-functional alignment across complex initiatives, support effective change adoption through implementation, and partner with Product Management on prioritization by providing value, risk, and dependency analysis while Product Management retains final prioritization ownership.

In this role, you’ll serve as a senior technical analyst across key initiatives—analyzing business needs, mapping system behavior, and defining precise functional specifications that align business goals with technical execution. Excellent analysis requires both deep system knowledge and modern ways of working. That’s why we’re looking for BAs who already use AI to sharpen how they gather requirements, write documentation, and troubleshoot complex issues, and who are curious about where AI takes the craft next.

Specifically, you will:





- Drive Discovery & Problem Definition: Lead customer and stakeholder discovery to define business problems, desired outcomes, and measurable success criteria.

- Own & Refine Requirements: Own and refine requirements for complex initiatives, including user stories and acceptance criteria aligned to product strategy and business objectives.

- Evaluate Scope & Tradeoffs: Lead cross-functional decisions on scope, sequencing, dependencies, and tradeoffs to keep delivery aligned with roadmap objectives.

- Develop Business Cases: Own the development of business cases that define value, scope boundaries, assumptions, risks, and measurable success metrics for proposed initiatives.

- Support Backlog & Roadmap Planning: Drive backlog refinement and roadmap‑planning inputs by providing value, risk, and dependency analysis while Product Management retains final prioritization ownership.

- Collaborate for Testable Delivery: Lead collaboration with development and QA teams to ensure requirements are testable, acceptance criteria are verifiable, and UAT and release validation are execution‑ready.

- Monitor Outcomes & Drive Corrective Action: Drive monitoring of feature outcomes, defect trends, and customer feedback, leading corrective actions that improve adoption, quality, and cycle‑time performance.





- Ensure Requirement Artifacts & Governance: Own clear requirement and decision artifacts that reduce rework and support predictable delivery across business and technology teams.

- Elevate Team Standards: Lead and mentor business analysts, driving team standards, practices, and tools that improve analysis quality and delivery effectiveness.

What We're Looking For

Strong analytical skills are the starting point. What matters beyond that is judgment: knowing how to navigate complex systems, evaluating trade‑offs, and translating technical complexities into actionable business decisions.

To thrive in this role, you'll need:

- Education & Experience: Bachelor's degree in Business, Information Systems, Computer Science, or a related discipline (or equivalent work experience), plus a minimum of 5 years of related experience in business analysis, product analysis, or a closely related role with progressively elevated responsibilities.

- Cross-Functional Initiative Leadership: Proven experience leading cross-functional initiatives that span multiple systems, teams, or business domains.

- Agile Delivery & Backlog Tooling: Working knowledge of Agile/Scrum delivery practices and backlog tooling (e.g., Jira, SharePoint), with a demonstrated ability to lead requirements through the full delivery lifecycle.

- End-to-End Requirements Governance: Demonstrated ability to lead end-to-end requirements governance for complex initiatives, including traceability, change control, and decision logging.

- Impact, Risk & Dependency Analysis: Strong capability in cross‑functional impact, risk,
