Senior Technical Business Analyst
Contract: 12 months
Inside IR35
Location: Hybrid - Leeds / Newcastle / Birmingham

Role Purpose
We are seeking a Senior Technical Business Analyst with recent, hands-on experience work-ing directly with software development teams to help shape and deliver shared technical capa-bilities and enablers across DWP Digital.
This is a highly technical BA role. You will operate at SFIA Level 5 (Ensure & Advise), working alongside engineers, architects, DevOps and platform teams to turn loosely defined technical epics into delivery ready user stories.
This is not a task taking role. The successful candidate will bring structure to ambiguity, challenge constructively, and actively shape technical solutions.
Essential Skills & Experience
Candidates must clearly evidence the following. Applications that do not will not progress.
1. Recent Technical BA Experience
* Extensive experience working directly with software development teams
* Clear examples of:
o technical user stories written
o outcomes delivered (not just responsibilities)
o systems or platforms worked on
2. Technical Awareness & Breadth
Experience should include exposure to some of the following:
* Cloud platforms (e.g. AWS, Azure)
* CI/CD pipelines (e.g. GitLab, Jenkins)
* Containers & orchestration (e.g. Docker, Kubernetes)
* APIs and service-based architectures
* DevOps ways of working
* Non-functional requirements (security, resilience, recoverability, testability)
Hiring manager feedback: "I can't have someone who does not know what a container is."
3. Agile & Lean Delivery
* Strong Agile mindset with experience working in Scrum / Kanban teams
* Lean, outcome-focused approach to requirements and scope
* Comfortable working with ambiguity and evolving technical landscapes
4. Breadth of Experience
* Demonstrated experience across multiple systems, teams or technical domains
* Candidates focused narrowly on ERP, single-system implementations or systems inte-gration alone will not be considered
Rullion celebrates and supports diversity and is committed to ensuring equal opportunities for both employees and applicants.
