JOB DESCRIPTION:

Analyze Existing Legacy Systems:

• Work with business stakeholders from various value streams/lines of business,

including content management, marketing, commerce, and digital application

end-users, to understand the current business processes/flows and pain points

to resolve via technical/digital transformations.

Work in lower environments of enterprise and legacy systems (backend for

content management, CMS modules, Order Management Systems) and (front

end for commerce modules in web and native interfaces) to document the user

journey, business rules, current features, and AS-IS state of systems.

• Perform GAP analysis and impact analysis of business ask and map them

against the existing technology stack to determine feasibility, scopes of

improvement, and determine potential synergies across core services.

• Study API swaggers and test existing integrations via POSTMAN to determine

the JSON payloads—request and response parameters—to discuss technical

feasibility/constraints with technical stakeholders.

• Query data extracts from legacy DBs to determine the product listing and

description attributes for standardizing into new robust/enhanced digital

applications.

• Schedule JRP (Joint Requirement Planning) sessions with multiple technology

teams of backend, frontend, and user research/user interface designers to walk

through the business requirements (must have, nice to have, good to have, etc.)

and determine LOEs (Levels of Estimate) for feature work and technical

infrastructure.

Gather Requirements from Cross-Functional Stakeholder Teams:

• Set up calls, focus group discussions, and 1:1 interviews with business teams to

document the Business Requirements Document and determine business

value/development criticality.

• Work with API Hub, various core services, and Enterprise Integration teams to

understand the existing business logic, microservices architecture, modularity of

services, pub-sub mechanisms, etc., to determine technical requirements for

migrating commerce modules from legacy systems to new digital applications.

• Create a RACI matrix (Responsible, Accountable, Consulted, Informed) for BRD

reviews, approvals, change request management discussions, and any

downstream/upstream intake requests for integration systems.

Develop Data Flow Diagrams, Activity Diagrams, and Contribute to System

Requirements Specifications:

• During JAD sessions, collect the TO-BE state of UI flows from source to

downstream/target systems via the routing layer. Draw the happy and error paths

• of API calls (GET, POST, PUT, etc.) and determine the orchestration mechanisms

for the new flows.

• Develop customer journeys and maps to translate the UI flows via activity,

persona and use case diagrams.

• Determine any ERD specs for new business requirements and models.

Create and Manage the Product Backlog and Technical Documentation:

• Convert the approved Business Requirements document into product backlog in

Jira (ALM tool), document these epics (write out the business value, success

metrics, acceptance criteria etc. for the product roadmap).

• Breakdown these signed off epics into user stories and tasks – with Gherkin

format, Figma prototypes and wireframes to translate the requirements for

backlog refinement.

• Work with the engineers to document the tech specs at a story level.

• Maintain all API and data mapping documents for feature work.

Testing duties:

• Perform all in-sprint testing of dev-complete stories in CERT and QA

environments. Create bug/defect tickets in Jira as needed, and update Kanban

statuses in ALM.

• Develop test plans and scenarios for end-to-end testing of feature release work.

• Organize regression testing and SIT/SAT with downstream and impacted teams

prior to releases.

• Conduct UAT demos with stakeholders, gather feedback, and sign off on feature

work for release into production environments.

Agile project management duties:

• Facilitate standups, refinement sessions, system reviews, and retrospectives with

the scrum teams.

• Participate in all pre-PI planning PO syncs, PI planning team breakouts, ART

board creation, and business approval/team commitment discussions.

• Provide customer feedback during sprint reviews and adapt the requirements

backlog as needed for sprint work.

• Attend governance/cadence calls to give reports on team health, RAG status,

discuss RAID logs, and resolve any impediments.

• Develop sprint reports—burndown, epics completion, etc.—on Jira dashboards.

• Send out weekly status reports on sprint work, completed velocity, and any

escalation issues to the project management office/ART.

Develop user manuals prior to production releases.

MINIMUM EDUCATION & SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS: a Bachelor’s degree in
