Create and maintain dashboards, reports, and metrics in Jira to support sprint tracking and leadership visibility. Organize and maintain documentation in Confluence, including sprint summaries, reports, and artifacts. Agile & Product Delivery Support Partner with the Product Manager to support Agile ceremonies (stand-ups, backlog refinement, sprint planning, sprint demo/review, retrospectives). Serve as a backup facilitator for Agile ceremonies when needed. Support PI planning and contribute to SAFe Agile practices. Maintain high standards of traceability, ensuring all user stories, tickets, and deliverables are properly linked and documented. Collaborate closely with technical and product teams to refine stories and remove blockers. Documentation & Reporting Contribute to monthly status reports highlighting progress, risks, metrics, and key accomplishments. Create and maintain written deliverables such as user guides, release notes, and project documentation. Ensure all deliverables maintain accuracy, clarity, and consistency. Stakeholder & Customer Engagement Build strong working relationships with users, stakeholders, and leadership across teams. Communicate progress, challenges, and outcomes with clarity and professionalism. Serve as a liaison between business and technical teams, ensuring mutual understanding of requirements and constraints. Support the Product Manager in shaping the product roadmap and ensuring alignment with modernization goals. What You Will Bring: Ability to obtain and maintain a High-Risk Public Trust designation (previous/current clearance or designation preferred). Bachelor’s degree in Information Systems, Computer Science, Business, or related field. 3–5 years of experience as a Business Analyst on software development projects, preferably in an agile or DevOps environment.
