**Workplace:** hybrid

## Description

**Job Title: Business Systems Analyst (BSA) / Scrum Master**

**Location:** Pittsburgh, PA/Dallas, TX

**Type:** Full-Time

  

**Role Overview**

We are seeking a versatile **BSA/Scrum Master** to join our Platform Modernization team. You will play a dual role: as a **BSA**, you will dissect complex legacy system logic and translate it into modern, scalable requirements; as a **Scrum Master**, you will facilitate Agile ceremonies and remove technical blockers for a high-performing engineering team.

The ideal candidate understands that "modernization" isn't just a tech upgrade—it’s a shift in mindset, architecture, and delivery speed.

  

**Key Responsibilities**

**1\. Systems Analysis & Requirements (BSA)**

-   **Legacy Decomposition:** Analyze existing monolithic systems, databases, and business logic to document "as-is" states.
-   **Modernization Mapping:** Map legacy functions to "to-be" cloud-native architectures (Microservices, APIs, Event-driven designs).
-   **User Story Engineering:** Write high-quality User Stories with clear Acceptance Criteria (AC) that account for technical debt and platform scalability.
-   **Data Migration Logic:** Collaborate with data engineers to define mapping rules and validation logic for moving data from legacy schemas to modern structures.

**2\. Agile Delivery & Coaching (Scrum Master)**

-   **Ceremony Facilitation:** Lead Daily Stand-ups, Sprint Planning, Reviews, and Retrospectives with a focus on continuous improvement.
-   **Impediment Removal:** Proactively identify and clear "modernization-specific" blockers (e.g., environment access, API dependencies, security compliance hurdles).
-   **Backlog Health:** Partner with Product Owners to prioritize technical debt alongside new feature development.
-   **Metric Tracking:** Use JIRA/Azure DevOps to track Velocity, Burndown, and Cycle Time to predict delivery timelines accurately.

  

**Technical Skills & Qualifications**

-   **Modernization Expertise:** Experience with projects involving Cloud Migration (AWS/Azure/GCP), API First strategies, or Monolith-to-Microservices transitions.
-   **Technical Literacy:** Ability to read SQL queries, understand API contracts (Swagger/OpenAPI), and discuss architectural diagrams with developers.
-   **Documentation:** Proficiency in Confluence, Lucidchart, or Visio for process mapping and system flowcharts.
-   **Agile Tools:** Expert-level knowledge of **JIRA** or **Azure DevOps (ADO)**.

  

**Preferred Experience**

-   **Years of Experience:** 5+ years in a BSA or Scrum Master role within a technical environment.
-   **Certifications:** CSM (Certified Scrum Master), PSM, or CSPO. Cloud certifications (AWS Cloud Practitioner) are a huge plus.
-   **Industry Context:** Experience in highly regulated industries (Finance, Healthcare, Insurance) where modernization involves complex compliance requirements.

**Soft Skills**

-   **The "Translator" Ability:** Can explain a technical database constraint to a business stakeholder and a business rule to a developer with equal clarity.
-   **Adaptability:** Comfortable with the ambiguity that often comes with discovering "hidden" logic in legacy systems.
-   **Servant Leadership:** A focus on empowering the team rather than just managing a task list.
