What is a technical business analyst?

A technical business analyst (BA) provides analysis and technical expertise for a business or organization. As a technical BA, your job duties revolve around assessing and analyzing an organization’s current IT capabilities and suggesting solutions to improve the company’s computer systems, such as HR or payroll systems or applications used in retail. You may also oversee a project that implements your suggestions, and you provide technical assistance when setting up new systems that can increase the business’s capacities.
