U. S. Bank is seeking a detail-oriented Financial Systems Business Analyst to support the Finance Division’s management and regulatory reporting system (OFSAA) in the Management Reporting Operations (MRO) group. This involves attending the TOS Project meetings and representing MRO and our application files. This includes, managing the design (if new), development, maintenance of existing files into FDW/OFSA. These data feeds provide the information needed to support bank-wide Basel initiatives, Regulatory Reporting initiatives, and any new data elements needed for the Bank’s new reporting application software (Axiom).

The Analyst will attend project meetings that have gone through the prioritization process and are ready to start development work. They will read/interpret business requirements written by the Business Lines for changes to application files and determine impact to MRO. The Analyst should have a good understanding of the Business so that when needed, they are able to challenge the Business Lines when necessary. In addition, the Analyst will need to interpret the TOS functional/technical design documents written by the programmer. It could also involve writing business requirements when FDW/OFSA requires additional data elements.

As projects move through the development life cycle, the role will require testing, reconciliation and problem solving. It will involve querying information from a data warehouse, coding in PL/SQL for data processing and performing other ad-hoc data mining, profiling and financial analysis. Finally, as the project moves into production, the role will maintain project and data interface related documentation.
