Job description
Responsibilities
- Lead stakeholder interviews and workshops with clients and internal teams to understand goals, current workflows, and pain points.
- Document current-state and future-state processes, business rules, data definitions, and edge cases.
- Support new-project sizing by breaking scope into epics and stories that engineering can estimate with confidence.
- Identify assumptions, risks, dependencies, and open questions early, and drive them to resolution.
- Write clear user stories with testable acceptance criteria in Jira.
- Partner with the Product Manager to prioritize and groom the backlog ahead of each two-week sprint.
- Work with UI/UX design in Figma to make sure flows and screens match the requirements, and flag gaps before development starts.
- Answer engineering questions during the sprint and keep requirements current as decisions are made.
- Work with QA to make sure acceptance criteria translate into solid test coverage.
- Support sprint demos and coordinate user acceptance testing with clients.
- Keep requirements documentation organized in Google Drive so decisions and their rationale are easy to find later.
- Make sure compliance, security, and audit requirements (including SOC 2 considerations) are captured as explicit requirements, not afterthoughts.
- Act as a trusted point of contact for clients on scope and requirements questions.
- Translate between business and technical audiences clearly and without jargon in either direction.
- Surface scope changes early and help the team and client understand the tradeoffs.
Requirements
- 3+ years as a Business Analyst, Product Analyst, or similar role on software projects.
- Strong experience writing user stories and acceptance criteria in an agile/Scrum environment.
- Proven ability to run discovery sessions and turn ambiguous input into structured requirements.
- Comfort with process mapping and data modeling at a business level (flows, entities, relationships, rules).
- Hands-on experience with Jira; familiarity with Figma and collaborative docs.
- Excellent written and spoken English; comfortable leading client meetings with U.S. stakeholders.
- Enough technical literacy to have productive conversations with engineers about APIs, integrations, databases, and system constraints.
Nice to Have
- Experience in an agency, consultancy, or software services environment juggling multiple clients.
- Exposure to regulated or compliance-heavy domains (e.g., SOC 2, telecom/outbound compliance, education, fintech).
- Experience writing requirements for integrations with third-party platforms.
- Familiarity with web application stacks (e.g., Laravel, React) and AWS.
- Experience supporting estimation or proposal work for new projects.

Prepare your application
Use the description above to assess your fit for Bluelight Consulting. This checklist is guidance from Resumize, rather than additional requirements from the employer. Imported listings can be shortened or change after collection, so confirm the complete description and current availability before sending an application.
Match requirements to evidence
Identify the responsibilities and skills the employer explicitly names. For each important requirement, choose one example from your work, education, training, or projects. Explain what you did, how you did it, and what changed as a result. Include a measurable outcome when you can support it. If you lack a requirement, describe related experience accurately instead of adding an unfamiliar skill to your resume.
Put the most relevant examples near the top of your resume. Keep job titles, dates, qualifications, and contact details consistent across your application materials. Use the employer’s terminology when it describes your experience accurately; a copied list of keywords does not explain your contribution. A short, specific bullet is easier to review than a paragraph that mixes several unrelated duties.
Check the working arrangement
Confirm the location, schedule, employment type, and any eligibility requirements on the employer’s site. A remote label does not establish worldwide eligibility or flexible hours. If compensation, benefits, equipment, travel, or contract duration are missing from this listing, write down your questions for the recruiter. Do not assume details from another opening at the same company apply to this role.
Review before submitting
Follow the employer’s requested file format and application instructions. Open your exported resume and check that its text is selectable, its sections read in order, and its links work. Proofread names, dates, and contact information. Share confidential work samples only when you have permission, and use an anonymized example when necessary.
Submit through a trusted employer or recruiting destination. If the original listing has disappeared, search the employer’s careers page for the title rather than assuming the vacancy remains open. Save the application date, job reference, and the version of your resume you sent. Those details help you prepare for a later conversation and avoid submitting conflicting information through several job boards.
Review your resume for writing and readability feedback, or browse other openings if this opportunity is unavailable.
