Senior Business & Process Analyst - Regulated Operations (PL8066)

Paralucent is seeking a Senior Business & Process Analyst to help modernize complex, regulated operational workflows. You will work with operations, legal/compliance, technology and control stakeholders to translate established process and requirement artefacts into features, stories, business rules, acceptance criteria, controls and release-ready increments.

The ideal candidate is comfortable with ambiguity, detailed enough for audit-sensitive work, and practical enough to keep delivery moving.

What You'll Do

- Review existing future-state processes and detailed requirements without unnecessarily restarting discovery.
- Decompose end-to-end capabilities into process flows, features, user stories, acceptance criteria, business rules and test scenarios.
- Model request types, case states, queues, roles, SLAs, deadlines, pauses, escalations, approvals, overrides and exceptions.
- Define human-in-the-loop decision points, maker/checker controls and evidence requirements.
- Document information-discovery, fulfillment, redaction, response-assembly, dispatch, closure and reopening requirements.
- Maintain end-to-end traceability from requirement through test evidence and release.
- Facilitate focused workshops, clarify conflicts and present options with business and delivery impacts.
- Partner with UX, architecture, engineering, AI and QA teams to ensure requirements are usable and testable.
- Support UAT planning, defect triage, operating procedures, training and knowledge transfer.

What Success Looks Like

- Backlog items are complete, prioritized, testable and understood before development begins.
- Business rules and controls are captured precisely enough to prevent over-processing or under-processing.
- Open questions and dependencies are raised early with clear recommendations.
- Requirements remain traceable through test, evidence and release.
- Operations and control stakeholders accept the delivered workflows and procedures.

Requirements

- 7+ years in business analysis, process analysis or product analysis for enterprise technology delivery.
- Experience in banking/financial services preferred; comparable experience in insurance, government, healthcare or another regulated industry accepted.
- Strong skills in process modelling, requirements decomposition, user stories, acceptance criteria, business rules and traceability.
- Experience with workflow, case management, work queues, SLA/deadline management, approvals and exception handling.
- Ability to work with legal, compliance, privacy, security, operations and technology stakeholders.
- Excellent facilitation, documentation, analytical and communication skills.
- Experience supporting UAT, production readiness and operational adoption.

Preferred Experience

- CBAP, CCBA, Lean/Six Sigma, BPMN or product-management certification.
- Experience with legal requests, investigations, records, disclosure, financial crime or other evidence-sensitive processes.
- Experience defining AI-assisted workflows, confidence thresholds and human validation.
- French-language capability or experience designing bilingual processes is an asset.

Role Scorecard: Illustrative Measures

Final targets and cadence will be confirmed for the specific assignment. Typical measures include:

- Backlog readiness and acceptance-criteria quality
- Requirements-to-test traceability coverage
- Age of unresolved business decisions
- Rework caused by requirement ambiguity
- UAT acceptance and defect trends
- Operational procedure and training readiness
- Stakeholder confidence in process accuracy
