We are seeking an experienced Technical Business Analyst to join our CapAssure team, supporting the complete lifecycle of our SaaS application—from data analysis and system configuration to quality assurance and production support.

You will analyze and maintain critical data assets, gather and interpret database information, and track client requests and deliverables for the Product organization. This role requires hands-on technical expertise: staging SQL queries, applying database changes, and validating data and configuration updates across QA, UAT, and Production environments.

Your responsibilities include performing functional, report, and regression testing to ensure application quality, while serving as a key resource for business users requiring complex data analyses and unique dataset extractions. You'll apply these same capabilities to new client onboarding and ongoing configuration maintenance.

The ideal candidate demonstrates strong RDBMS knowledge, advanced SQL proficiency, and analytical thinking with the ability to confidently navigate complex data. You should be detail-oriented with excellent problem-solving skills, well-organized, and comfortable managing shifting priorities and tight deadlines.

Experience with the full Software Development Lifecycle and enterprise-class system testing is highly valued. Through this role, you'll develop deep expertise in complex private equity fund waterfalls and carried interest plans.

• Create test data and develop test cases for accounting and financial workflows
• Document test results in JIRA and Azure DevOps, compare against expected outcomes, and track defects through resolution
• Validate that configuration changes produce intended impacts on data processing and system behavior

Client Support & Onboarding

• Support new client onboarding and ongoing configuration maintenance
• Investigate and document client-reported issues and system defects
• Provide end-user support for data analysis, reporting, and system change requests
• Collaborate with development teams on client-driven enhancements

SDLC & Project Management

• Contribute throughout the full Software Development Lifecycle from requirements analysis to production deployment
• Track and manage client requests and deliverables through the Product pipeline using JIRA and Azure DevOps
• Maintain documentation for system configurations, processes, and testing procedures
