The Impact You Will Have in This Role

As a Senior Business Systems Analyst, you will play a key role in DTCC’s modernization journey, helping transform critical Clearance & Settlement platforms that support the securities processing lifecycle. Working at the intersection of Business, Product, and Technology, you will analyze complex current-state systems, uncover opportunities for simplification, and help define future-state requirements that guide delivery teams through execution.

This role is ideal for a curious, analytical, and technology-minded professional who enjoys solving complex problems, navigating ambiguity, and connecting disparate pieces of information. With limited documentation and evolving legacy systems, you will help uncover how applications operate today, challenge existing processes, and influence the design of scalable, modern solutions that deliver long-term business value.

• Conduct current-state analysis of Clearance & Settlement applications, workflows, data flows, and business processes. 
• Identify simplification, automation, and modernization opportunities across complex legacy environments. 
• Translate business needs into clear functional specifications, process flows, workflow diagrams, use cases, and supporting documentation. 
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to validate findings, challenge assumptions, and align on future-state solutions. 
• Support Agile delivery by refining requirements, clarifying business logic, and ensuring development teams have the information needed for execution. 
• Use SQL and data analysis techniques to investigate application behavior, validate requirements, and support decision-making. 
• Lead workflow design discussions and contribute to user experience improvements where applicable. 
• Review effort estimates, timelines, risks, and dependencies with project teams and stakeholders. 
• Identify process gaps, control opportunities, and areas where automation can improve efficiency and reduce risk. 
• Mentor junior team members by providing guidance on requirements analysis, documentation standards, and project delivery best practices. 
• Create and maintain system documentation in alignment with company standards, governance practices, and risk/control expectations.
