Business Analyst

A business analyst connects stakeholders' business goals to what gets built, eliciting, analyzing, and documenting requirements and process flows. They map business logic, edge cases, and rules so engineering can build with minimal ambiguity. BAs are strongest where domains are complex and getting the requirements exactly right is critical.
