Svitla Systems Inc. is looking for a Senior Business Analyst for a full-time on-site position (40 hours per week) in New York, USA. Our client is a finance company and an alternative lending platform focused on providing capital access to small and medium-sized businesses.
The office is based in NYC's Financial District in downtown Manhattan. The role requires working on-site Monday through Friday during standard business hours. The interview will happen on-site.
The Senior Business Analyst is the primary driver of discovery, process understanding, and requirements clarity for a software delivery engagement supported by a remote offshore engineering team. This role is accountable for building and maintaining a deep, working understanding of the client’s existing business processes through daily stakeholder conversations, structured walkthroughs, and ongoing validation of assumptions. The Senior Business Analyst translates current-state workflows, sign-off paths, exception handling, and operational dependencies into implementation-ready requirements and documentation that leaves minimal room for interpretation.
Success requires a disciplined approach to eliciting detail, reducing ambiguity, and producing exhaustive written artifacts, including step-by-step guides, process manuals, how-to documentation, and decision logs that enable engineering and QA teams to build and validate functionality with predictability and minimal rework. While project coordination responsibilities may support delivery flow, the core value of this role is senior-level business analysis, process modeling, and documentation rigor that withstands scrutiny from both business stakeholders and technical teams.
