  • Write user stories and acceptance criteria in testable formats (Given/When/Then)
  • Break large features into developer-ready tasks and support backlog grooming

  • Work with QA to make sure test cases actually match the acceptance criteria
  • Flag edge cases, dependencies, and integration risks before they hit development
  • Maintain documentation, workflows, and user flows so the team isn't relying on tribal knowledge

What you need
  • Experience as a Business Analyst or Technical Analyst on software development projects
  • Strong grasp of Agile (Scrum, Kanban)
  • Comfortable writing user stories and testable acceptance criteria
  • Hands-on with Jira, Azure DevOps, or similar backlog tools
