The IT business analyst role differs from other business analyst roles in that it focuses specifically on a business's information technology (IT) aspect. While traditional business analysts may work across multiple organizational departments and functions, an IT business analyst primarily focuses on the technology used to support business operations.
An IT business analyst typically works closely with IT departments and stakeholders to identify, analyze, and document business requirements for technology solutions. They may manage software development projects, testing and quality assurance, and provide ongoing support to end-users.
