Isn't that what a.Business Analyst does?
- giantg2 5y agoThat's my belief. At my company we don't have them (or I would be applying to those roles). It's seems most companies know they can save money by combining that with the developer role. I don't see postings for them.
- edmcnulty101 5y agoTo be honest engineers's earn so much because they're doing multiple jobs. They're also usually doing project management if there's no dedicated project manager.
- giantg2 5y agoI would agree, if I were making 6 figures. I'm DevSecOps, so I'm definitely doing multiple things. I don't earn "so much".
- edmcnulty101 5y agoDevSecOpsBizProj is prob more like it. Hope you get a position in the future that pays you what you're worth.
- giantg2 5y ago"DevSecOpsBizProj" lol it never ends
- antisthenes 5y agoAt this point, you're sitting there wondering if you should be working for yourself.

- edmcnulty101 5y agoI love letting a Biz Analyst handle that. It's a nice luxury. I get a nice spec delivered to me to code. instead of translating from business people who don't even know what they want? Yes please.
- warrenm 5y agoI hate letting the Biz Analyst "handle that" All too often, the "spec" a BizAn tries to hand over is nothing resembling a "spec", and instead just a bunch of word vomit I have to take back to the original source(s) and ask them to explain everything they wasted hours explaining to the "analyst" because the "analyst" didn't analyze anything - they just reformatted what the enduser(s) said into a standardized form
- warrenm 5y agoJust because a Business person gives a description in non-technical-eze doesn't make him/her an idiot It means you're not yet fluent in their language
