Your Opportunity
Schwab remains committed to providing increased visibility to career growth opportunities and job requirements. This posting announcement is part of increased transparency and while all qualified applicants will be reviewed and considered, this organization has a preferred candidate identified for this role.
At Schwab, you’re empowered to make an impact on your career. Here, innovative thought meets creative problem solving, helping us “challenge the status quo” and transform the finance industry together.
We believe in the importance of in-office collaboration and fully intend for the selected candidate for this role to work on site in the specified location.
Join the DARE (Data Archival & Corporate Records Reliability Engineering) organization, owner of mission critical
OnDemand and ePresentment platforms that power the archival, integrity, and delivery of enterprise scale regulatory
client communications. These platforms are experiencing sustained file-volume growth, increasing regulatory and
operational risk, and expanding upstream dependencies—while simultaneously undergoing major legacy
modernization to improve scalability, resiliency, and stability.
As a Senior Business Systems Analyst, you’ll shape how quality, reliability, and risk mitigation are engineered into
mission‑critical, highly regulated platforms at enterprise scale within the DARE organization, which supports the
archival, integrity, and delivery of regulatory client communications amid rapidly growing volumes and increasing
operational complexity. You will partner hands on with product, engineering, and business leaders to translate
complex regulatory, operational, and platform needs into executable user stories, technical specifications, and
delivery ready requirements. You’ll be embedded in day to day execution, driving clarity, traceability, and alignment
across highly interdependent systems, while ensuring platforms remain stable, resilient, and compliant as complexity
continues to rise.
1. Lead end to end analysis across multi year, mission critical initiatives
Independently lead complex business and systems analysis across multiple concurrent, multi year initiatives, including
legacy platform modernization (OCAPI and OnDemand Portal), ANEX account number expansion, Schwab Crypto,
replatforming legacy applications (IGR), and ongoing regulatory maintenance workloads. Operate across both legacy
and modernized platforms while managing increasing platform complexity, regulatory exposure, and upstream
dependencies.
2. Translate complex regulatory and technical needs into delivery ready requirements
Partner hands on with product, engineering, and business leaders to translate highly complex regulatory, operational,
and technical requirements into clear, executable user stories, technical specifications, and acceptance criteria that
support delivery across modernization, expansion, replatforming, and compliance initiatives. Ensure requirements are
precise, testable, and aligned to enterprise regulatory obligations.
3. Drive proactive risk identification and cross system traceability
Serve as a core risk mitigation function by proactively identifying regulatory, operational, and dependency risks across
interdependent platforms and initiatives. Maintain strong end to end traceability across OCAPI, OnDemand Portal,
ANEX, Schwab Crypto, IGR, and regulatory maintenance workstreams to protect platform stability, resiliency, and
compliance as volumes and complexity continue to grow.
4. Provide senior level advisory influence on solution design and delivery outcomes
Operate beyond standard BSA execution by providing senior level advisory ownership across initiatives, influencing
solution design, architectural decisions, and delivery sequencing to ensure long term reliability of DARE’s regulatory
communication platforms. Guide teams through tradeoffs inherent in modernization, replatforming, and regulatory
change while enabling consistent, high quality delivery outcomes.
