Position Summary

The Business Analyst, Engineering works closely with Product Management, Software Engineering, Systems Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Quality, and other stakeholders to translate product and business needs into detailed, clear, and testable engineering requirements. The role primarily supports software development while also coordinating cross-disciplinary requirements involving system, electrical, and mechanical components.

This position is responsible for developing and maintaining product and engineering requirements, use cases, workflows, acceptance criteria, and related backlog items. The Business Analyst, Engineering helps ensure requirements are complete, unambiguous, traceable, and ready for implementation and verification.

Primary Responsibilities

Requirements Definition and Management

· Elicit, analyze, document, and validate product, customer, business, and operational needs.

· Translate high-level product requirements into detailed, unambiguous, feasible, and testable engineering requirements.

· Primarily develop software requirements while collaborating with other engineering disciplines when product behavior or requirements span multiple product components.

· Develop and maintain functional requirements, system behavior descriptions, business rules, workflows, use cases, process flows, interface requirements, data requirements, and acceptance criteria.

· Capture expected behavior, alternate flows, boundary conditions, error conditions, and operational constraints necessary for implementation and verification.

· Facilitate requirements reviews and drive clarification of ambiguities, gaps, conflicts, assumptions, and dependencies.

· Maintain traceability between product requirements, engineering requirements, development work items, and verification activities.

· Assess and document the impact of requirement changes across affected product areas and engineering disciplines.

Backlog and Work Item Management

· Create, organize, and maintain engineering backlog items derived from approved requirements.

· Decompose requirements into clear and actionable work items suitable for engineering implementation.

· Ensure backlog items contain sufficient context, requirements, acceptance criteria, dependencies, and supporting documentation.

· Maintain relationships and traceability among requirements, backlog items, defects, and verification work in the applicable lifecycle-management tools.

· Support backlog refinement and planning activities with Product Management and Engineering.

· Keep backlog content current as requirements are clarified or changed.

Engineering and Verification Support

· Serve as a primary point of contact for requirements clarification during development and testing.

· Collaborate closely with Software Engineers and, as needed, other engineering disciplines to ensure requirements accurately describe intended product behavior across the product.

· Support Quality and Test teams by clarifying expected behavior and acceptance criteria during verification and validation.

· Assist with defect analysis, requirement interpretation, and change-impact assessment.

· Participate in cross-functional reviews to confirm that proposed solutions address the documented requirements.

· Contribute to specifications, product documentation, test cases, test plans, and supporting technical artifacts as needed that meet ISO 13485 regulations.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

· Partner with Product Management to understand product objectives, customer needs, and approved priorities.

· Work with Engineering, Quality, Service, Manufacturing, Operations, and other stakeholders to obtain the information required to produce complete requirements.

· Facilitate working sessions and reviews to develop requirements and achieve stakeholder alignment.

· Communicate requirement decisions, assumptions, dependencies, and changes clearly to affected teams.

· Support verification and validation activities such as design verification or software qualification testing, on both physical and virtual systems.

You Must Have:

Required Qualifications

· Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Information Systems, Business, or a related discipline, or equivalent relevant experience.

· Minimum of 3+ years of experience in business analysis, systems analysis, requirements engineering, software development support, quality engineering, or a related technical role.

· Demonstrated ability to write clear, detailed, and testable software, system, or product requirements.

· Experience producing acceptance criteria, use cases, workflows, business rules, or functional specifications.

· Experience maintaining and refining engineering backlog items.

· Ability to understand technical concepts and communicate effectively with software engineers and other engineering disciplines.

· Strong analytical, written communication, facilitation, and organizational skills.

· Ability to identify ambiguity, missing information, dependencies, and inconsistencies in requirements.

You Can Excel With:

· Experience with Azure DevOps, Jira, or a similar application lifecycle-management platform.

· Experience maintaining requirement traceability and supporting change-impact analysis.

· Familiarity with software development lifecycles and Agile development practices.

· Experience supporting software verification and validation activities.

· Experience with laboratory systems, scientific instruments, life sciences, medical devices, industrial automation, or other multidisciplinary products.

· Experience collaborating across software, systems, electrical, or mechanical engineering teams.

· Experience with NPI and PDI processes.

Role Boundaries

This role manages requirements and related backlog content but does not serve as the Product Owner. Product strategy, roadmap ownership, priority decisions, architecture ownership, and personnel management remain with the appropriate Product Management and Engineering leaders.

Working Conditions:

· Occasional travel (<10%) is expected depending on the project phase

· Hybrid work (4 days / week onsite in Billerica, MA)

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
