The Role
You will act as the bridge between business needs and technical delivery, ensuring requirements are clearly understood, well-defined, and effectively implemented.
This role involves continuous collaboration with developers, rather than a traditional “handover” style of analysis.

Profile
- Hands-on and detail-oriented
- Comfortable working closely with engineers on a day-to-day basis
