Description
As a Technical Business Analyst – Application Modernization & DevOps at , you will serve as the critical bridge between application engineering, cloud infrastructure, and DevOps delivery teams during complex cloud migration and modernization initiatives. Unlike traditional BA roles focused on business process redesign, your core focus is on technical delivery enablement—ensuring applications can be efficiently built, tested, released, and operated using modern engineering practices while preserving existing functionality, security, and performance standards.
Responsibilities
- 1. Build, Test & Release Process Modernization
- Analyze current-state application build and deployment workflows to identify bottlenecks, manual steps, and modernization opportunities without altering business logic.
- Map and document future-state deployment patterns, automated testing integration points, and operational release procedures.
- Support quality assurance, performance validation, and non-functional requirement (NFR) verifications to ensure production readiness.
- 2. CI/CD & Repository Governance
- Partner with cloud and DevOps engineers to define criteria for CI/CD pipeline design, deployment readiness, and automated release gates.
- Establish and document standards for branching strategies, merging protocols, source control governance, and repository structures.
- 3. Technical Facilitation & Alignment
- Facilitate technical discovery sessions and alignment workshops across developers, QA engineers, cloud operations, and product stakeholders.
- Translate complex architectural and infrastructure requirements into clear, actionable technical user stories, acceptance criteria, and workflow diagrams.
- Define functional validation and regression planning frameworks to ensure zero disruption to core business capabilities during migration phases.
- Key Deliverables You Will Produce
- Current-State vs. Future-State Delivery Maps: Technical workflow documentation outlining build, test, and release pipeline transitions.
- Technical Backlog & Epics: High-quality user stories with clear acceptance criteria for CI/CD, branching strategies, and environment provisioning.
- Deployment & Operations Playbooks: Standard operating procedures (SOPs) for deployment, rollback protocols, support, and release readiness.
- Traceability & Validation Matrices: Requirements matrices mapping functional behavior to regression and performance validation criteria.
Qualifications
- 5+ years of technical business analysis or technical delivery experience supporting software engineering or cloud initiatives.
