Business Analyst

A Data Products Business Analyst plays a critical role in identifying business needs, uncovering problems, and driving the development of data-driven solutions. Unlike traditional business analysts who passively gather requirements, this role is proactive in analyzing the business context, eliciting stakeholder needs, and defining optimal data product solutions.

The Data Products Business Analyst ensures that data initiatives align with business strategy, leveraging principles from BABOK (Business Analysis Body of Knowledge) to drive structured, value-focused outcomes. By taking ownership of business problem analysis, requirement elicitation, and structured documentation, this role contributes to the success of data products by ensuring solutions are well-defined, feasible, and valuable.
