About The Position

Tryfacta is seeking a Business Analyst 3 for a temporary contract assignment at the William B. Travis State Building in Austin, Texas. The role performs advanced, senior-level business analysis and serves as a conduit between the program/customer community and the software development team, facilitating the flow of requirements.

The assignment is for nine months, with a Monday-through-Friday schedule from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. The employer is Tryfacta, a workforce management solutions provider serving private- and public-sector firms across the United States.
