This is a REMOTE role. We are unable to sponsor work authorization, now or in the future, for this role.
The AI Senior Business Analyst is the domain partner who pairs directly with a Forward Deployed Engineer to automate the work of the business. You will embed in one or two functional areas at a time — learning how the work actually gets done, mapping the workflows and pain points, and turning that understanding into a steady stream of well-scoped solutions for your FDE to build.
You are the primary feeder of work to the FDE: the person who builds AI solutions and ensures it solves a real problem the right way. In the early phases you will go deep in your first area and establish the standard operating rhythm; Later, you will take on additional areas, mentor newer Business Analysts, and codify how this model scales across the enterprise.
At Lineage, the aim is not to build the largest technology team; instead, we are creating a small, highly skilled group that focuses on having the right mix of talents, skills, and the capacity to learn in areas that define our core differentiation.
