Description

We are looking for a senior-level Business Analyst to support complex identity and access management initiatives in California.

Facilitate discovery sessions, interviews, and workshops to gather detailed business needs and convert them into clear functional documentation, user stories, and process maps.
Support Agile delivery by maintaining requirements artifacts, refining backlog items, and collaborating with cross-functional teams throughout planning, testing, and implementation phases.
Evaluate privileged access and identity governance processes to help shape least-privilege access models and strengthen oversight of sensitive accounts.
Review business and technical documentation to confirm alignment between proposed solutions, policy expectations, and end-user requirements.
Assist with enterprise-scale digital transformation efforts by coordinating analysis activities, tracking dependencies, and ensuring business objectives remain clearly defined.
Work closely with service and support teams, including customer-facing operations, to assess process impacts and improve user experience related to access requests and issue resolution.

Requirements

Strong background in identity and access management, including privileged access management and identity governance concepts.
Demonstrated ability to perform gap analysis, document business requirements, and produce clear process and workflow documentation.
Hands-on experience working in Agile or Scrum environments with the ability to manage evolving priorities effectively.
Proven skill in leading stakeholder discussions, gathering requirements, and translating complex needs into actionable deliverables.
Familiarity with CyberArk-related environments or comparable privileged access solutions is highly preferred.
