System Analyst

Job Description

Role & responsibilities System analyst - 5+ experience . This role is focused specifically on system analysis in the context of integrations and high-load fintech platforms. While there is some overlap with business analysis, the day-to-day responsibilities are much more technical and system-focused. Key responsibilities include: Analyzing and documenting integration flows between internal systems and third-party platforms (e.g., LMS, CBS, KYC, credit bureaus, payment gateways) Designing and validating API specifications REST/SOAP, JSON/XML, callback flows, retry logic Defining system-level workflows (e.g., process triggers, fallback mechanisms, queue-based design suggestions) Preparing functional and system requirement documents (FRD, SRS) in collaboration with architects and developers Working closely with tech leads and architects to translate system needs into implementable technical solutions – e.g., deciding whether to use BPMN, RPA, or Kafka-based queues Supporting SIT/UAT by providing technical clarification, mapping expected vs actual integration behaviour Ensuring consistency and completeness across layers – backend, workflow engine, external integrations, and frontend You're right that the business analyst might define the goal ("a message should not be dropped"), but the system analyst defines how this should be ensured within existing system constraints, working hand-in-hand with architects on technical implementation planning.
