A role that combines functional analysis and technical participation in the data ecosystem.

The role

At Metrica, we are looking for a Business Analyst with around 3 years of experience to act as a link between the business, Data teams, and technology areas.

We are looking for a hybrid profile, with an approximate dedication of 70% to functional analysis and 30% to the technical field. Your main responsibility will be to transform data-related business needs into clear requirements, user stories, and tasks. Additionally, you will provide occasional technical support through data analysis and small developments or adjustments to existing processes.

What you'll do

Gather and analyze functional and non-functional requirements, identifying needs, processes, dependencies, and expected results.
Create, prioritize, and maintain the backlog in Jira: epics, features, user stories, and tasks, including acceptance criteria and traceability.
Participate in refinement sessions with the Product Owner and technical teams, resolving doubts and identifying risks and dependencies.
Prepare and maintain documentation in Confluence: AS-IS/TO-BE processes, business rules, requirements, decisions, and evidence.
Ensure traceability between business needs, development, testing, and functional acceptance.
Analyze data sources, mappings, transformations, and quality controls using SQL and other query tools.
Coordinate communication between the business, Data Engineers, development, architecture, and other involved teams.
Define and execute functional and UAT testing, document evidence, and manage defects in Jira.
Participate in agile ceremonies and track progress, blockers, and dependencies using filters, JQL queries, and dashboards.
Collaborate occasionally in the development and maintenance of ETL/ELT processes in Azure Databricks, using Python and, where appropriate, PySpark.
Support the diagnosis of incidents and the performance improvement of data processes, following the team's testing, code review, and CI/CD practices.
Use AI tools as support for analysis and development, while maintaining the review and validation of results.
