CLOSING DATE & TIME: October 21, 2024 after 4:00PM Pacific Time
GENERAL PURPOSE
Under general supervision (Business Systems Analyst I) or direction (Business Systems Analyst II), performs a diverse range of analytical and coordinative duties in the development of technology solutions for optimizing District business processes; serves as primary client interface in evaluating the business process and recommending solutions; conducts feasibility studies to identify most cost-effective and efficient solutions; provides ongoing professional support to assigned business system modules; collaborates with internal staff or external third-party software vendors in project design and implementation; and performs related duties as assigned.
DISTINGUISHING CHARACTERISTICS
Business Systems Analyst I: This is the entry-level classification in the Business Systems Analyst series. Initially under close supervision, incumbents learn the operational aspects of multiple District departments to consult with them on developing solutions to automate, enhance, or optimize business processes. As experience is gained, assignments become more varied, complex, and difficult; close supervision and frequent review of work lessen as an incumbent demonstrates skill to perform the work independently. Positions at this level usually perform most of the duties required of the positions at the Business Systems Analyst II level but are not expected to function at the same skill level and usually exercise less independent discretion and judgment in matters related to work procedures and methods. Work is usually supervised while in progress and fits an established structure or pattern. Exceptions or changes in procedures are explained in detail as they arise.
Business Systems Analyst II: This is the fully qualified journey-level classification in the Business Systems Analyst series responsible for performing the full range of tasks associated with business systems analysis and technology solution development, working independently, and exercising judgment and initiative, providing guidance regarding project decisions, outcomes, and task prioritization; evaluates and recommends solutions advising and guiding; may serve as a project lead. Positions at this level receive only occasional instruction or assistance as new or unusual situations arise and are fully aware of the operating procedures and policies of the work unit. This class is distinguished from the Senior Business Systems Engineer in that the latter performs the more complex work assigned to the series, serves in a project lead capacity on an ongoing basis, and/or provides technical or functional direction over lower-level staff.
SUPERVISION RECEIVED AND EXCERCISED
Receives general supervision (Business Systems Analyst I) to direction (Business Systems Analyst II) from assigned supervisory or management personnel. Exercises no direct supervision over staff.
