Our Agile Professional Services division is helping them with their enterprise digital transformation including transitioning to a SAFe/scaled agile environment. The hiring manager is looking for BSA’s who are willing to roll up their sleeves and work hand in hand with their Product Manager to translate requirements to their development team. Someone with high energy, self-motivated, and ready to dive-in quickly in somewhat of an unstructured environment. By that I mean they won’t be coming in with all the "as-is" already defined so might need to work on both the "as-is" and "to-be" requirements.
