Summary

Senior Systems Analyst (IT Discovery & Documentation)

Organization: (Government Client)

Assignment Duration: Approximately 3 Month W2 Contract (potential extension / FTE conversion)

Work Model: Hybrid preferred to start (Broomfield, CO) but open to remote

Compensation: $60-$70/hr. (DOE)

Onboarding Requirements:
  • Authorized to work in U.S.; sponsorship not available
  • Background check


Project Context & Objective

Our local Government *CLIENT* relies on a large, complex network of systems, applications, and services to serve our community. Currently, there is a critical gap in systems-level documentation and dependency mapping.

We need an expert Senior Systems Analyst to lead a 3-month intensive discovery phase. The dual objectives of this engagement are to:

  1. Discover, diagram, and document the inventory of core, Tier-1, and high-use systems, dependencies, and primary infrastructure the IT department manages.
  2. Leverage those findings to define and draft a Foundational IT Service Catalog, mapping the raw technical systems to the actual services IT provides to the City and County.


Core Responsibilities
  • Discovery & Auditing: Conduct a targeted audit of core IT infrastructure, primary applications, associated network segments, and key cloud services leveraging existing system logs and SME-provided configurations.
  • Dependency Mapping: Identify and document how systems interact, data flows, integration points, and critical dependencies.
  • Technical Diagramming: Translate complex technical environments into clear, easily digestible high-level logical architecture, data flow, system dependency and operational diagrams.
  • Stakeholder Interviews: Interview subject matter experts, system admins, and departmental users to uncover undocumented legacy configurations and "shadow IT."
  • Service Catalog Development: Group discovered systems and applications into logical IT services, establishing a baseline Technical Service Catalog that can be used for future ITSM and Disaster Recovery planning.


Required Skillsets

Technical Expertise:

  • Systems & Data Analysis: Deep understanding of modern and legacy IT application flows, data integration points, and high level infrastructure concepts (on-premise servers, cloud services, and SaaS applications).
  • Technical Diagramming: Advanced proficiency in diagramming tools (e.g., MS Visio, Lucidchart, Draw.io).
  • Infrastructure Knowledge: Strong foundational knowledge of networking concepts, Active Directory, virtualization, databases, and API integrations.
  • ITSM / Service Catalog Experience: Proven experience translating technical infrastructure into ITIL-aligned Service Catalogs or Configuration Management Databases (CMDB).


Consulting & Execution Skills:

  • Investigative Methodology: Ability to piece together disparate information from outdated documents, system logs, and user interviews to build a complete picture.
  • Rapid Onboarding: Ability to parachute into a complex, undocumented environment and begin delivering value immediately.
  • Technical Translation: Skill in translating highly technical network topologies into business-readable documentation and service definitions.


The Ideal Persona

We need a proactive investigator who is comfortable navigating ambiguity. The ideal candidate is:

  • Highly Autonomous: Can drive the discovery process forward independently, supported by scheduled access to key SMEs and internal documentation.

e Diplomatic & Approachable: Able to extract information from busy IT staff and institutional knowledge holders without causing disruption or defensiveness.
  • Analytical & Detail-Oriented: Has a passion for organizing chaos, mapping structures, and finding the "missing links" in complex ecosystems.
  • Pragmatic: Understands that in a 3-month sprint, delivering an accurate, foundational baseline is the priority over perfectly polished theory.


Expected Deliverables (At the end of 3 months)
  1. Comprehensive Systems Inventory (high use systems, products and services): A central repository of all IT-managed applications, services, and core hardware.
  2. Architecture & Dependency Diagrams: Visual maps of the core IT landscape, including high-level logical architecture and application-layer dependencies (excluding low-level network topology mapping).
  3. Foundational IT Service Catalog Baseline: A structured initial catalog defining core business-facing IT services mapped directly to the primary underlying systems and applications identified during the 3-month discovery phase.
  4. Handoff Briefing: A structured walkthrough of the documentation and service catalog for IT leadership and operational teams.
