Senior Business Systems Analyst - Federal Modernization

Overview PhoenixTeam is hiring two Senior Business Systems Analysts for a Department of the Interior modernization program. One role will focus primarily on workforce, policy, and service-delivery processes; the other will focus primarily on data, integration, intake, and financial-integrity workflows. Both positions are hands-on analyst roles with pod-level leadership. They work directly with stakeholders to understand current operations, define future-state requirements, and stay embedded with technical teams through design, prototyping, testing, and user acceptance. Candidates do not need experience in both domain tracks. Key Functions Translate current-state workflows into clear future-state requirements for software, low-code, automation, data, or AI-enabled solutions. Develop user stories, acceptance criteria, test scenarios, and traceable requirements; coordinate user acceptance testing and drive issues to resolution with stakeholders and delivery teams. Analyze data flows, system handoffs, controls, and integration needs so business requirements are specific enough for solution designers and engineers to act on. Maintain accurate decision logs, requirements, trackers, and client-ready documentation throughout discovery and iterative delivery. Work directly with federal sponsors and cross-functional delivery teams, lead discussions when needed, and operate effectively when requirements are incomplete or changing.
