Senior Business Analyst
We’re looking for a Senior Business Analyst who thrives at the intersection of product thinking, data-driven insight, and team leadership. As a Senior BA at ICON, you will play a pivotal role in shaping strategy, business outcomes, driving execution, and mentoring a small team of junior analysts. This is a hybrid role that blends deep individual contribution with people leadership

What You’ll Do
1.  Partner with Product Managers and stakeholders to translate vision into scalable solutions grounded in data, process, and customer insight

 

2.  Own the end-to-end requirements lifecycle—from discovery through documentation, validation, delivery, and post-launch retrospectives

 

3.  Leverage a strong foundation in SDLC, STLC, Agile/Scrum, and modern product development practices to drive business and product outcomes

 

4.  Mentor and manage 3-4 junior BAs, helping grow their skills and ensure quality delivery

 

5.  Build compelling narratives and influence decisions across Product, Engineering, and Business leadership

 

6.  Develop and deliver high-impact reports and presentations for senior management

 

7.  Lead cross-functional workshops and working sessions to align teams and accelerate outcomes

 

8.  Balance strategic priorities with hands-on execution—able to flex between big-picture thinking and in-the-weeds delivery

 

 

You Might Be a Fit If You Have
1.  Bachelor’s degree in business, Finance, IT, or related field; advanced degree or relevant certification (e.g., CBAP/CSPO/Product Management) is a plus

 

2.  8–10 years of experience in Business Analysis, Product Ownership, or Product Management

 

3.  Proven success delivering impact in cross-functional environments

 

4.  Experience managing or mentoring other analysts or team members

 

5.  Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with fluency in data tools and BI platforms

 

6.  Clear, confident communication across technical and non-technical audiences

 

7.  A mindset that blends strategic insight with tactical ownership—you think big, but get things done

What you need to know about the Chennai Tech Scene

To locals, it's no secret that South India is leading the charge in big data infrastructure. While the environmental impact of data centers has long been a concern, emerging hubs like Chennai are favored by companies seeking ready access to renewable energy resources, which provide more sustainable and cost-effective solutions. As a result, Chennai, along with neighboring Bengaluru and Hyderabad, is poised for significant growth, with a projected 65 percent increase in data center capacity over the next decade.
