  • Collaborate with data engineers, analytics engineers, BI developers, and AI/ML practitioners to ensure business logic is accurately reflected in delivered solutions
  • Facilitate discovery sessions, requirements workshops, stakeholder interviews, and cross-functional alignment meetings
  • Create and maintain documentation including business requirements documents, process flows, metric definitions, test scenarios, and decision logs
  • Support Agile delivery by writing user stories, documenting acceptance criteria, and participating in sprint planning and prioritization
  • Identify gaps between stakeholder expectations, available data, and technical feasibility; proactively communicate risks and tradeoffs
  • Support user acceptance testing and promote consistent use of data definitions and standardized analytics practices
