You are the human.

\n
\n

The role

\n
\n

Technical Business Analyst on a 12 month contract, sitting between the product tribes and the engineering teams on a newly funded programme. No direct reports. You own the solution instead.

\n
\n

What the work looks like

\n
\n

\n
\n
• Workshop with business owners in the morning, refinement with engineers in the afternoon, and both walk out feeling understood
\n
\n
• Turn what people say they want into what they actually need, then into user stories and acceptance criteria an engineer can pick up without asking you what you meant
\n
\n
• Pull apart system and enterprise architecture until you know how the thing really behaves
\n
\n
• Stay with the solution from pre-discovery all the way through delivery, not just until the Confluence page is signed off
\n
\n

\n
\n

You will recognise yourself if

\n
\n

\n
\n
• You have around five years doing this properly, in real agile teams, not agile-as-a-meeting-schedule
\n
\n
• You read an API spec for orientation, not for reassurance. Swagger, Postman, JIRA, Confluence
\n
\n
• You understand cloud, microservices and how digital products get built, without being asked to write the code
\n
\n
• You have started using AI tools in your own work and have opinions about where they help and where they do not
\n
\n

\n
\n

The detail

\n
\n

\n
\n
• Day rate contract, 12 month initial duration
\n
\n
• Sydney CBD, hybrid, three days on site
\n
\n
• Mid-level by design. If you are a principal, this one will bore you
