Systems Engineer

• Serve as the Technology organization’s internal consultant to Finance, Marketing, Sales, and Operations — advising business unit leaders on technology capabilities, system constraints, and feasibility trade-offs that affect operational strategy and technology investment decisions.
• Lead the development of functional and non-functional requirements, user stories, process flows, and acceptance criteria. Evaluate conflicting stakeholder input and make recommendations on requirements scope — including recommending de-scoping of items that do not meet feasibility, priority, or business-value thresholds — and drive resolution in collaboration with stakeholders and project leadership.
• Develop, maintain, and enforce the Technology organization’s requirements management standards, documentation templates, and quality review protocols; assess requirements readiness and recommend when they meet the threshold for engineering handoff.
• Serve as the lead facilitator for resolving requirements disputes between business units; surface conflicting priorities, present trade-off analyses, and drive alignment — escalating to senior leadership for final resolution when stakeholders cannot reach consensus.
• Provide expert recommendations to the VP of Project Management and senior business leadership on technology roadmap sequencing, build-vs-configure-vs-buy trade-offs, and resource allocation decisions affecting the technology portfolio, supporting informed decision-making by leadership and cross-functional teams.
• Analyze existing systems and workflows to identify, prioritize, and recommend solutions for gaps and inefficiencies; propose investigation scope and remediation approaches to technology leadership for approval within established project parameters.
• Collaborate with data and analytics teams to define the reporting, metrics, and insights needed to measure business outcomes; recommend measurement frameworks and KPI definitions for stakeholder approval.
• Maintain current, traceable documentation across all active projects; accountable for requirements quality such that defects traceable to requirements gaps are a direct performance measure of this role.
• Leverage AI tools to accelerate requirements development, flowchart creation, acceptance criteria authorship, and documentation — applying professional judgment to validate and refine AI-generated outputs before engineering handoff.
