About The Position

The Principal Business Analyst II is a senior-level contributor responsible for leading complex, high-visibility SAP Modernization Program. This role operates with a high level of autonomy, applying advanced analytical capabilities and business acumen to drive meaningful improvements in operational performance and customer outcomes.

This includes working closely with business and IT leadership to define and prioritize requirements, establish implementation strategies, and ensure successful delivery of large-scale solutions. The role requires demonstrated experience working across departments, engaging with executive stakeholders, leading the documentation of current and future state processes, and recommending technology alternatives that meet functional and non-functional business needs.
