Many analyst roles ask you to document what already exists.
This one asks you to configure it, test it and make it better.
Most analyst roles sit comfortably between meetings and templates. This one doesn’t.
You’ll work hands-on in the platform, configuring business rules and dynamic forms, investigating how systems behave, and finding where they could work smarter across an insurance and financial services platform.
Real exposure from day one.
Meaningful work, visible impact, and direct access to the people who make decisions.
What this role is (and isn’t)
This role is for someone who:
- Asks why something works before suggesting how to fix it
- Enjoys getting into the system itself: rules, forms, data and integrations
- Can write for a developer and a business stakeholder on the same day
- Wants to own outcomes, not just document them
- Thrives with broad exposure in a flat, high-trust team
This role is probably not for someone who:
- Prefers to stay on the business side and leave the technical details to others
- Wants clearly defined swim lanes and a large team around them
- Is looking for a tick-the-box, follow-the-process kind of role
The Work
You’ll sit at the intersection of business and technology, turning requirements into working configuration and making sure what gets built actually solves the problem. Practically, this means:
- Configuring, maintaining and testing business rules in underwriting and claims rules engines
- Building and maintaining dynamic forms and reflexive questioning
- Translating requirements into functional specs, decision tables and data mappings
- Using SQL to investigate data, validate system behaviour and troubleshoot issues
- Working with APIs, JSON structures and system integrations
- Investigating issues, finding root causes and working with developers to resolve them
- Designing and running test scenarios for rules, configuration and integrations
Example problems you might work on:
- Tracing why a claims rule is referring cases it shouldn’t, and fixing the logic.
- Reducing configuration time for new client implementations by separating what varies from what can be standardised.
- Mapping how insurance data flows between applications, underwriting, policy and claims, and where it breaks down.
None of these requires extensive years of experience. They require curiosity, structured thinking, and the willingness to dig in.
About You
You’re 1–3 years in as a Technical BA, Systems Analyst or similar, and you’re ready for real responsibility.
You bring:
- The ability to translate business needs into structured, implementable requirements
- Hands-on comfort with how information flows between systems, such as APIs, SQL, field mapping and config schemas
- Comfort working with rules logic, data definitions or validation criteria
- Strong analytical thinking and a habit of asking the right questions first
- Exposure to AI tools or AI-assisted analysis and process improvement
Nice to have:
6) Experience with Microsoft Azure or cloud platforms
7) Familiarity with workflow automation, messaging systems or event-based architecture
8) Any background in insurance, especially underwriting or claims (or a genuine willingness to learn)
What Excelling Looks Like
- 3–6 months: You know the software and configuration tools well, and you’re contributing to configuration, testing and troubleshooting with less and less reliance on the technical team.
- 6–9 months: You’re independently configuring and testing underwriting and claims rules, owning your deliverables, and building strong relationships with clients and the team.
- 12 months: You’re a trusted, self-sufficient technical resource who challenges existing approaches and delivers measurable improvements.
You understand, not just do. That’s the bar.
