Sharad Shaji

A results-driven IT professional with over 20 years of experience in the IT industry, specializing in the analysis, design, and development of medium to large turnkey projects. With 6+ years as a Business Analyst, I excel at bridging the gap between business needs and technical teams, ensuring effective communication and the creation of clear functional specifications. I have extensive experience gathering, analyzing, and refining both business and technical requirements, and am highly skilled in writing actionable user stories with wireframe mockups for Agile teams. This ensures enhanced clarity and provides a visual guide for both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

I bring in-depth knowledge of Agile and Scrum processes, including backlog grooming, sprint planning, and iterative delivery of solutions. Adept at managing relationships with business stakeholders, development teams, and clients, I ensure that requirements are accurately captured and expectations are met. My experience working with cross-functional teams—such as developers, QA engineers, and business leaders—guarantees smooth project delivery. Additionally, I have a basic understanding of SQL and the key concepts behind ETL processes. As an AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner, I possess a foundational knowledge of AWS services and cloud architecture, supporting business operations through best practices.
