  • Comfort with process mapping and business-level data modeling, including flows, entities, relationships, and rules.
  • Hands-on experience with Jira; familiarity with Figma and collaborative documents.

  • Write clear user stories with testable acceptance criteria in Jira.
  • Partner with the Product Manager to prioritize and groom the backlog ahead of each two-week sprint.

  • Answer engineering questions during the sprint and keep requirements current as decisions are made.
  • Work with QA to ensure acceptance criteria translate into solid test coverage.
  • Support sprint demos and coordinate user acceptance testing with clients.
  • Keep requirements documentation organized in Google Drive so decisions and their rationale are easy to find later.

  • Experience writing requirements for integrations with third-party platforms.
