[Hiring] Senior Business and Data Analyst @Abacus Insights

Role Description

We are seeking an experienced Business and Data Analyst to join our team. In this role, you'll be the analytical engine between a client's business need and the data solution that delivers it. You'll turn business questions into precise, testable requirements, then use the data itself to prove out what's possible:

• Profiling sources
• Validating assumptions
• Shaping designs that are clean, buildable, and grounded in evidence rather than opinion

You'll own the requirements and analysis for your use cases and workstreams, working in close partnership with Business Solution Managers who hold the broader engagement.

This is a client-facing role. You'll translate complex healthcare challenges into rigorous requirements, and you'll use SQL and analytical judgment to show clients and delivery teams what the data actually says, where it falls short, and what that means for the design.

Your day-to-day responsibilities include:

• Analyzing the Data and Building the Evidence
• Driving Requirements and Design for Your Use Cases
• Being a Trusted Client-Facing Partner
• Collaborating Across Delivery

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree, or equivalent relevant experience
• 5+ years working in the US healthcare domain and with healthcare data (claims, provider, membership/eligibility, benefits, prior authorization, or PBM)
• Payer experience required: direct experience working with or for a US health plan (Medicare, Medicaid, or Commercial)
• Working command of core payer concepts such as membership/enrollment, provider, claims, and authorizations
• Strong, hands-on SQL: comfortable with joins across large, multi-table datasets, window functions, CTEs, aggregations, and date/span logic
• Demonstrated analytical rigor: a track record of profiling data, assessing data quality, and communicating quantified findings
• Experience defining metrics, mentoring junior analysts, and eliciting and authoring business requirements
• Confident client-facing communication; able to drive a conversation and present analytical findings
• Comfort operating with ambiguity and managing multiple use cases
• Developing systems thinking: experience designing for reuse and scale across states, clients, or use cases

Requirements

• Lead discovery sessions for your use cases
• Translate each use case into clear, testable requirements
• Document source-to-target mappings, transformation logic, and business rules
• Identify dependencies before a design is finalized
• Drive requirements-gathering and clarification conversations with client SMEs
• Present analysis results, data quality findings, and recommendations to client stakeholders
• Connect the client and the internal team on your workstreams
• Support QA and UAT by supplying validation queries and expected results

Benefits

• Unlimited paid time off – recharge when you need it
• Work from anywhere – flexibility to fit your life
• Comprehensive health coverage – multiple plan options to choose from
• Equity for every employee – share in our success
• Growth-focused environment – your development matters here
• Home office setup allowance – one-time support to get you started
• Monthly cell phone allowance – stay connected with ease
