The Technical Business Analyst (Tech BA) is a quality champion within Agile teams, primarily responsible for driving product excellence through the independent creation and execution of test plans, use cases, and automated testing frameworks. By validating requirements, data models, and edge cases early and continuously, the Tech BA reduces translation gaps between Product, QA, and Engineering, ensuring smoother delivery and higher product quality. Candidates will ensure robust validation of business requirements and data integrity, leveraging advanced tools and analytics to proactively identify and resolve issues especially in complex payment and data environments. Requirements gathering and documentation are supported as needed, but the core accountability is rigorous, independent testing and test automation. The Tech BA proactively identifies gaps, challenges assumptions, and drives continuous improvement across testing practices.
