Pittsburgh

Job DescriptionInnovative Systems, a worldwide leader of hi-tech data management, AML compliance, and Payment Screening solutions, is looking for a high-achieving detail-oriented Business Analyst supporting our Payments products, who wants to be with an organization where they can make a REAL IMPACT! Innovative provides just the right mix of opportunity. What’s the challenge? A Business Analyst in a payments screening company faces the constant challenge of translating highly complex regulatory, technical, and operational requirements into clear, actionable product requirements documentation. Because AML and sanctions expectations evolve rapidly across jurisdictions, the analyst must continuously interpret new rules, ensure alignment with screening logic, and reconcile diverse stakeholder needs—from engineering and marketing teams to customer support teams and everything in between. They must also navigate the inherent tension between regulatory rigor and payment‑speed expectations, especially as instant payments, real‑time rails, and cross‑border flows demand accurate screening outcomes with minimal latency. This requires deep analytical judgment, an ability to identify subtle workflow inefficiencies, and a structured approach to determining whether product changes truly reduce risk or unintentionally create new vulnerabilities. At the same time, the analyst must serve as a trusted partner to work with customers to guide future enhancements to the product, optimize workflows, dashboards, and reporting. Conducting operational reviews after product releases is uniquely challenging in AML screening because success cannot be measured solely through technical performance—customer feedback, reduction in false positives, alert quality, and the practicality of new features within the customers teams all determine actual value. The analyst must be adept at guiding customer conversations, extracting meaningful insights, and reconciling conflicting user feedback while maintaining a firm understanding of how screening logic, case management, and payment‑rail variations interplay. Ultimately, they must balance customer expectations, regulatory obligations, and internal development constraints while ensuring the company’s AML solutions remain effective, defensible, and competitive.
