  • Collaborate with business stakeholders, solution architects, developers, and vendors to define solutions and deliver application enhancements.
  • Support trading, risk management, position management, exposure analysis, profit and loss (P&L), settlements, confirmations, and reporting processes.
  • Coordinate System Integration Testing (SIT) and User Acceptance Testing (UAT), including test planning, test case reviews, execution, and defect resolution.
  • Manage defect triage, investigate application issues, assess business impacts, and coordinate corrective actions.
  • Support integrations involving market data, trade processing, settlements, accounting, and downstream reporting systems.
  • Conduct incident analysis and root-cause investigations in collaboration with vendors and internal IT support teams.
  • Contribute to deployment readiness, cutover planning, release management, and post-go-live hypercare.
  • Maintain functional specifications, operational procedures, support documentation, and troubleshooting guides.
  • Identify opportunities to improve system reliability, operational efficiency, business controls, and existing processes.
  • Facilitate stakeholder discussions, manage dependencies, and maintain alignment between business requirements and technical delivery.
  • At least 7 years of experience as a Business Analyst or Senior Business Analyst supporting IT applications, preferably in commodity trading and hedging.
  • Hands-on experience with ION XTP or comparable ION trading platforms.
  • Functional or techno-functional experience with ION Openlink, Openlink Endur, or related Energy Trading and Risk Management (ETRM) or Commodity Trading and Risk Management (CTRM) platforms.
  • Strong understanding of commodity trading, hedging strategies, and end-to-end trade lifecycle processes.
  • Experience with soft commodities, particularly grains and seeds.
  • Proven expertise in requirements gathering, process mapping, functional documentation, and stakeholder management.
  • Experience coordinating SIT and UAT, managing defects, and supporting deployment and post-production stabilization.
  • Practical knowledge of production application support, incident management, root-cause analysis, and vendor coordination.
  • Understanding of system integrations, market data, pricing, settlements, and trading-related reporting.
  • Excellent communication, analytical thinking, problem-solving, and collaboration skills.
  • Experience in regulated or controlled environments, particularly those emphasizing auditability, operational controls, and risk management.
  • Familiarity with trade confirmations, position reconciliation, exposure reporting, and P&L processes.
  • Experience improving application support workflows, operational documentation, and release management practices.
  • Fully remote working arrangement.
  • Long-term contract opportunity with an initial duration of 12 months or more.
