• 5+ years of experience as a Business Analyst, with at least 3 years in healthcare, diagnostics, biotech, or clinical lab environments.
• Proven experience working with LIMS systems (e.g., Epic Beaker, LabWare, LabVantage, or NGLIMS) or EHR platforms like Epic.
• Strong grasp of healthcare data standards such as HL7, FHIR, LIS, and clinical workflows.
• Proficient in writing detailed functional specs, BRDs, and user stories; skilled in data modeling, systems design, and API documentation.

• Familiarity with tools such as Jira, Confluence, Lucidchart, Tableau, and Postman.
• Experience supporting regulated environments, including user acceptance testing (UAT), validation documentation, and audit-readiness.
• Skilled in SQL and comfortable working with structured data sets for validation and reporting.

Preferred Qualifications

• Background in lab operations, clinical diagnostics, or health IT environments.
• Experience supporting multi-system integrations, middleware, or interoperability initiatives across vendor platforms.

What Success Looks Like
