About The Position

The Junior Business Analyst is an early-career implementation role focused on building deep platform fluency, strong documentation habits, and a working command of payor clinical workflows within Elligint Health's Client Experience organization. Reporting to the Business Analyst Team Lead, you will work within a blended pod alongside US-based and offshore team members and contractors, partnering closely with Senior Business Analysts, Project Managers, and our Learning Services team. You will participate in every phase of the implementation lifecycle — attending client and internal sessions as a prepared, engaged contributor, executing defined configuration tasks, and producing the documentation and reusable artifacts that anchor the team's shared knowledge base. Growth in this role is measured by increasing configuration independence, documentation quality, and readiness to take on the full BA scope.

Ability to learn new software platforms quickly and applying that knowledge under guidance.
Ability to collaborate effectively across time zones and cultures, including with offshore team members.

Collaborate with business users, implementation teams, and technical resources to gather and document client business requirements, with support from senior team members on complex or ambiguous scope.
Develop current-state and future-state workflow diagrams, business process maps, and other visual documentation that accurately reflect client operations and platform configuration design.
