Business Analyst Quality Assurance

Role: Business Analyst Quality Assurance (Regulatory Finance)

Location: South Dublin (Hybrid — 3 days on-site, 2 days WFH)

We’re hiring a contract Business Analyst with a strong QA & Testing background to join a global finance technology team in South Dublin.

This role sits right at the intersection of regulatory reporting, data architecture, and software delivery. If you’re a BA who naturally thinks like a tester—someone who can dive deep into complex SQL, challenge business requirements, and design bulletproof UAT strategies—this will be a great fit.

What you’ll be doing:

• Bridging Tech & Reg Finance: Work alongside Dublin and global technology teams (US & India) to support major capital and regulatory reporting platforms (COREP, FINREP, Statistical reporting).
• End-to-End BA Ownership: Run workshops, map data pipelines, and draft clear BRDs/Functional Specs for data sourcing, normalization, and regulatory calculations.
• Testing & Quality Leadership: Lead the test strategy from the BA side—reviewing QA test cases, creating complex UAT scenarios, and validating data directly across UI and database layers.
• Hands-on Data Analysis: Query and reconcile large datasets to ensure complete control, accuracy, and line-of-sight for finance and treasury stakeholders.

What we’re looking for:

• Reg Finance Experience: Solid background in investment banking or capital markets, with exposure to financial products (Debt, Equity, Derivatives) and regulatory reporting frameworks.
• Data & SQL Skills: Highly proficient with SQL and Excel for data analysis and reconciliation. Bonus points if you’ve used tools like Alteryx or Informatica.
• Strong QA/UAT Focus: Proven track record leading UAT cycles, reviewing QA test plans, and verifying UI/Database changes.
• Global Collaboration: Comfortable working in Agile setups with cross-functional teams spanning multiple time zones.
• Location: Ability to work on-site in South Dublin 3 days per week.
