About The Position

The Technical Business Requirements Analyst serves as the business-facing liaison between manufacturing operations and Information Technology. The role translates manufacturing needs into clear, actionable, and testable requirements for digital tools supporting production, inventory, supply chain, quality, engineering, configuration management, and shipping. It also helps teams explore solutions early using wireframing, lightweight user-experience design, and AI-assisted prototyping so manufacturing users, IT, and engineering can align on problems, interactions, and technical approaches before development.

The analyst partners with cross-functional stakeholders to elicit, document, analyze, prioritize, and validate requirements; represent manufacturing priorities through project delivery; and define workflows, business rules, and user experiences. The position supports process improvement, testing, implementation, training, go-live activities, and early-production monitoring. It uses approved AI tools responsibly, ensuring generated outputs receive human review and that sensitive, controlled, proprietary, or regulated data is not used unless explicitly authorized.

The position works closely with manufacturing and production leadership, operators, engineering, quality, supply chain, project management, enterprise architecture, software development, IT operations, cybersecurity, data governance, and external vendors. Work may involve manufacturing areas, engineering laboratories, cleanrooms or controlled environments, offices, and technical workspaces. Occasional travel, off-shift implementation activities, and support during system cutovers or production releases may be required. The role may involve access to technical data subject to U.S. export-control regulations. Applicants must meet applicable U.S. Person and export-authorization requirements.

The good-faith base salary range is $120,000–$140,000, depending on experience, skills, and location. This is base salary only and excludes benefits and bonus or incentive compensation.

• Strong written, verbal, facilitation, and stakeholder-management skills.
• Ability to work independently and collaboratively in a fast-paced, mission-driven environment.
• Must be a U.S. Person: a U.S. citizen, lawful permanent resident, or protected individual as defined by applicable law.
• Must be eligible to obtain any required export authorizations.

• Experience with Agile, Scrum, Kanban, waterfall, or hybrid delivery methodologies.

Responsibilities

• Partner with manufacturing, engineering, quality, supply chain, inventory, and operations stakeholders to understand business needs and operational challenges.
• Elicit, document, analyze, prioritize, and validate business, functional, technical, data, reporting, and integration requirements.
• Translate operational needs into user stories, use cases, workflow diagrams, functional and nonfunctional requirements, and acceptance criteria.
• Document current-state and future-state processes and maintain traceability from business needs through design, development, testing, release, and implementation.
• Represent manufacturing priorities during project planning, backlog refinement, solution design, implementation, and release planning.
• Create low- and medium-fidelity wireframes, screen flows, navigation concepts, and workflow prototypes for manufacturing tools.
• Use wireframes to clarify roles, data entry, scan flows, approvals, exceptions, alerts, dashboards, and handoffs before development.
• Collaborate with users and IT to validate usability, terminology, information hierarchy, and shop-floor practicality.
• Document interaction requirements, field behavior, validation rules, permissions, accessibility considerations, and responsive or device-specific needs.
• Use prototypes to expose ambiguity, reduce rework, and support design reviews and stakeholder decisions.
• Use approved AI tools to generate, refine, and compare prototype concepts, sample workflows, interface copy, test scenarios, and synthetic examples.
• Evaluate AI-generated concepts for accuracy, usability, security, privacy, export-control implications, bias, traceability, and alignment with approved requirements.
• Ensure AI-generated outputs are treated as drafts requiring human review and do not use controlled, sensitive, proprietary, or regulated data unless explicitly authorized.
• Partner with IT, cybersecurity, data governance, and business owners to establish practical guardrails for AI-supported analysis and prototyping.
• Build working knowledge of manufacturing systems and processes, including planning and scheduling, MRP, inventory, kitting, receiving, production execution, quality, configuration management, shipping, reporting, ERP, MES, QMS, PLM, and WMS.
• Lead or support process mapping, workflow analysis, root-cause analysis, and continuous-improvement activities.
• Evaluate solutions for usability, scalability, maintainability, security, data integrity, operational risk, and cross-functional impact.
• Define business rules, roles, permissions, approvals, alerts, validations, and exception-handling requirements.
• Develop test scenarios, test cases, test data, acceptance criteria, and prototype-based usability test scripts.
• Coordinate functional, integration, regression, and user acceptance testing.
• Validate delivered functionality against approved requirements and prototypes; support defect triage and resolution.
• Participate in implementation planning, cutover readiness, training, communications, go-live support, and early-production monitoring.
• Facilitate interviews, workshops, prototype reviews, demonstrations, design reviews, and decision meetings.
• Explain technical concepts in clear business language and business needs in clear technical language.
• Build productive relationships across manufacturing, engineering, quality, supply chain, IT, program management, and leadership.
