Senior Business Analyst (Life Insurance Domain)

Not Disclosed

Job Description & Details

Senior Business Analyst role focused on life insurance systems. You’ll be the bridge between product owners and dev teams, making sure policy admin and underwriting workflows are captured correctly. The work is fully remote, so you need discipline and strong stakeholder chops.

What You'll Actually Be Doing

You’ll spend most of your day interviewing underwriters, agents, and ops staff to pull out the nitty‑gritty of policy lifecycle steps. Then you’ll translate those conversations into BRDs, FRDs, and user stories with clear acceptance criteria. Expect to sit in sprint planning, grooming, and UAT sessions, constantly checking that the backlog stays aligned with compliance and business goals.

The Core Tech Stack

The non‑negotiable skill set is deep life‑insurance domain knowledge—think PAS, policy admin, underwriting, and agent lifecycle systems. You must be fluent in writing BRDs, FRDs, SRS, and agile user stories, and comfortable managing traceability from requirement to release. The JD also calls out AI tools like Copilot and Claude, so being able to prototype prompts or automate doc generation will give you a leg up.

Interview Expectations

  1. “Walk me through how you’d design a requirement traceability matrix for a new policy‑admin module.” They want to see you can map functional specs to test cases, regulatory checkpoints, and downstream systems without losing detail. 2. “Explain a situation where you had conflicting stakeholder demands during an agile sprint and how you resolved it.” They’re probing your negotiation style, backlog grooming discipline, and ability to keep delivery on track.

Application Advice

Tailor your resume to surface every life‑insurance keyword the JD mentions—PAS, policy admin, underwriting, agent lifecycle, BRD/FRD, user stories, agile ceremonies, UAT, backlog management, and AI tools (Copilot, Claude). Highlight any CBAP, PMI‑PBA, or FLMI certs front‑and‑center. Quantify impact (e.g., “Reduced requirement‑to‑test cycle by 30%”) to satisfy both ATS filters and the hiring manager’s appetite for results.
