Location: Toronto, ON (Fully Onsite – 5 days/week required)
Duration: 8-month contract.
Advantages
High-Impact Sprint Autonomy: Drive technical direction by controlling the flow, framing, and definition of ready work for the development team.
Advanced Technology Sandbox: Deepen your expertise in technical business analysis, utilizing Azure DevOps, complex SQL structures, and API architecture specifications.
Cross-Functional Strategic Seat: Maximize your visibility by facilitating alignment between technical engineering squads, executive project managers, and business headers.
Pure Agile Execution: Solidify your resume inside a mature, high-velocity Scrum framework focused on rapid iteration and clean software delivery.
Responsibilities
Forward-Looking Requirements Grooming: Formulate and manage forward-looking delivery pipelines, actively grooming requirements and anticipating system dependencies so that upcoming development items are well-understood, fully documented, and ready for execution.
Agile Product Backlog Stewardship: Own, structure, and continually refine Product Backlog Items (PBIs) within software management ecosystems, communicating scope alterations to Project Managers and Team Leads.
User Story Engineering: Translate convoluted business and functional criteria into concise, high-quality user stories backed by clear acceptance criteria and technical dependency maps.
Stakeholder Elicitation & Workshop Leadership: Conduct deep-dive requirements discovery via Joint Application Design (JAD) sessions, focus groups, user mockups, and structured interviews with cross-functional business stakeholders.
Data & API Integration Modeling: Construct technical integration requirements, mapping API endpoints, data communication paths, and functional logic specifications for decoupled systems.
Relational Database Querying: Write precise SQL data queries to retrieve, profile, and validate back-end data elements, supporting source-to-target mapping and data integrity checks.
Comprehensive Business Modeling: Build vertically integrated conceptual designs, including use case models, business functional models, process flow maps, and non-functional requirements definitions.
Platform Management Custom Tooling: Leverage Azure DevOps to create, monitor, trace, and manage enterprise user stories and task hierarchies through all deployment check-gates.
Feasibility & Architecture Alignment: Perform structural analysis to diagnose operational problems, preparing data-driven business cases, feasibility studies, and cost-benefit assessments aligned with enterprise IT gating standards.
Performance Tracking & Traceability: Develop and enforce requirements traceability matrices and performance metrics to evaluate business analysis outcomes and support post-implementation follow-up.
Qualifications
Enterprise Business Analysis Seniority: 8+ years of progressive professional experience leading full-lifecycle IT business analysis, process re-engineering, and requirements engineering within multi-tier environments.
Agile Methodologies Specialization: Strong practical experience operating within Agile development lifecycles, with proven success assembling complex user needs into highly coherent, sprint-ready user stories (Strictly Required).
Backlog Engineering Depth: Demonstrated background looking ahead to prioritize, groom, and refine Product Backlog Items (PBIs) inside mature development pipelines (Strictly Required).
Azure DevOps Tool Stack Fluency: Direct, hands-on experience structuring, tracking, and maintaining user stories and requirements traceability matrices natively within Azure DevOps (Strictly Required).
Technical Integration & API Literacy: Proven capability defining technical requirements for API designs, system integrations, and cross-platform communication boundaries.
Relational Database Prowess: Practical capability writing SQL queries to extract, profile, and validate data tables across relational enterprise systems.
Structured Modeling Mastery: Advanced proficiency utilizing CASE modeling tools or diagram software (such as Visio or PowerDesigner) to map out business functional models and end-to-end data process flows.
Soft Skills: Superior consultative communication, negotiation, and relationship-management capabilities, with an established record of explaining systems development options to technical engineers and non-technical business clients alike.
Nice to Have:
Prior professional experience delivering business architecture models or navigating formal architecture gating reviews within a highly regulated corporate framework or public sector infrastructure.
Working knowledge of digital inclusion regulations and information management principles (such as AODA or WCAG standards).
