Client is seeking a Guidewire Analyst to support the stabilization and evolution of a solution already in production in the commercial insurance sector.
The role focuses on post-deployment: analyzing non-blocking bugs, functional adjustments, and enhancement requests, with continuous prioritization of bug fixes and technical debt. The ideal candidate will write user stories, requirements, and specifications, document impacts, and ensure alignment between business partners and the development, architecture, and quality assurance teams.
This is neither a coordination nor a project management role: the client expects someone who produces concrete functional analysis and clarifies requirements in an Agile context. Knowledge of property and casualty insurance, particularly commercial insurance, will be a deciding factor.
Requirement
- Minimum 3 years of experience as an IT Business Analyst in development or enhancement projects
- Functional analysis and writing of user stories, requirements, and detailed specifications
- Management and prioritization of defect, enhancement, and technical debt tickets
- Analysis of complex issues, documentation of impacts,
and recommendation of solutions
- Experience in an Agile environment (Scrum or Kanban)
- Communication, workshop facilitation, and stakeholder management
- Collaboration with developers, architects, quality assurance specialists, and business partners
- Autonomy, attention to detail, and robust synthesis skills
- Understanding of Property & Casualty (P&C;) insurance processes, particularly commercial insurance
- Knowledge of Guidewire (PolicyCenter, BillingCenter, or ClaimCenter)
Requirements
WHAT WE DON'T WANT
- Purely business analyst with no experience in IT development or upgrade projects.
- Project coordination or management profile without producing functional analysis and specifications.
- Candidate with no experience in an Agile, Scrum, or Kanban environment.
- Developer or architect aiming for a technical implementation role rather than an analysis role.
- Quality analyst or tester whose experience is limited to quality assurance without functional analysis.
