Position Overview We are seeking a highly experienced Senior Business Analyst who will operate with a Product Owner mindset, acting as a critical decision-maker in how work is evaluated, prioritized, and delivered while also driving key activities associated with migrating from a custom in-house platform to a cloud-based SaaS environment.
This is not a traditional Business Analyst role. This position is designed for someone who can challenge assumptions, lead platform transformation efforts, and accelerate delivery outcomes not just document requirements.
As a Senior Business Analyst (Product Owner Focus), you will serve as a central authority in the intake, evaluation, and prioritization of enhancement requests (Rapid requests) and a key influencer in coordinating production support (PSRs) across all business units. In parallel, you will drive critical project workstreams, coordinating cross-functional efforts such as business process automation, data cleanup, process alignment, system readiness, and migration planning. You will act as an escalation point for business stakeholders, providing guidance on feasibility, complexity, and business value to ensure only well-defined, high-impact work enters the development lifecycle. This role also maintains a continuous improvement mindset to optimize work entering the development pipeline, improve team velocity, and ensure effective execution within our outsourced development model, while taking ownership of assigned project-level coordination responsibilities tied to our transformation efforts.
What You Will Be Doing
Product Ownership & Intake Leadership
Act as a Product Owner in function, owning the evaluation and prioritization of incoming Rapid requests.
Serve as the primary escalation point for Business Stakeholders, providing direction on feasibility, scope clarity, and business value.
Lead Rapid review processes for various business departments, ensuring requests are actionable, properly scoped, and aligned to strategic priorities.
Make informed decisions on what should and should not enter the development pipeline.
Feasibility & Value Governance
Evaluate enhancement requests for technical feasibility, platform impact, and business value.
Determine when investigative development (Spikes) are warranted, ensuring they are used selectively and drive meaningful outcomes.
Challenge unclear, low-value, or redundant requests and guide stakeholders toward higher-impact solutions.
Domain Knowledge
Partner with the PMO, business and technical teams to align processes, workflows, and system capabilities with the target state models.
Identify risks, dependencies, and gaps in project readiness and ensure those risks are labeled & addressed with the PMO and Business Stakeholders.
Act as a PMO liaison working across stakeholders to ensure execution momentum and alignment throughout.
Delivery Lifecycle
Drive defined, consistent improvement efforts in the development lifecycle, focusing on increasing velocity, throughput, and delivery predictability.
Partner with development teams and our development partners to ensure work is ready, prioritized, and efficiently executed.
Identify and eliminate inefficiencies in backlog management, handoffs, and execution.
Platform & Systems
Develop a deep understanding of the end-to-end Retail Energy Platform, including cross-functional dependencies.
Provide input into system design decisions, data structures, and integration considerations to support current operations and future state system design.
Cross-Functional Execution
Drive alignment across Business, Technology, QA, Operations, and external development partners.
Facilitate decision-making sessions across stakeholders with competing priorities.
Take ownership of driving initiatives forward, not just defining them.
Proactively identify risks, gaps, and opportunities and work with the PMO team to address them.
What You Bring to the Table
Product Ownership Mindset
Proven ability to prioritize work based on business value and platform impact, not just stakeholder requests.
Experience acting as a decision-maker in backlog management and intake processes.
Strong judgment in balancing speed, quality, and long-term platform health.
Platform & Transformation Experience
Experience working on or supporting large-scale system transformations or migrations (SaaS, cloud, or platform modernization).
Strong understanding of data dependencies, data quality challenges, and migration considerations.
Ability to understand high-level current-state operations and connect that to future-state systems design thinking.
Delivery & Execution Focus
Track record of working across teams to implement defined process improvement initiatives to improve team velocity, delivery timelines, or operational efficiency.
Strong understanding of Agile delivery models and how to optimize them in practice.
Experience working with outsourced or distributed development teams.
Influence
Ability to challenge stakeholders constructively and drive better outcomes.
Strong communication skills with both technical and non-technical audiences.
Proven ability to lead without authority and influence decisions across teams.
What’s Needed Minimum Requirements
Bachelors degree in Business, IT, Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience)
7+ years of experience in Business Analysis, Product Ownership, or related roles in a technology-driven environment
Experience working in Agile environments (Scrum, Kanban, etc.)
What Sets You Apart
Experience acting in a Product Owner capacity
Experience or supporting large-scale platform transformations
Background in retail energy, utilities, or complex B2B platforms (nice to have but not required)
Demonstrated success in driving platform improvements and cross-functional initiatives
Experience improving delivery performance, reducing cycle time, or increasing throughput
How This Role Is Different
This Role Is For Someone Who Doesn’t just gather requirements they shape what gets built
Doesn’t accept requests at face value, they evaluate and challenge them
Doesn’t wait for direction, they drive transformation and execution
Bottom Line
You Will Be Expected To Act like a Product Owner
Drive outcomes, not just outputs

401(k)
