Procase Consulting is looking for an experienced Senior Systems Analyst with strong Oracle SQL and PL/SQL knowledge to support complex enterprise applications.
This is a hands-on systems analysis and coordination role involving requirements gathering, production issue analysis, system enhancements and direct interaction with business users and development teams.

- Own the intake, triage and analysis of production issues and enhancement requests.
- Reproduce issues, compare expected versus actual behaviour and assess business impact and priority.
- Analyze application screens, back-end logic, reports, scheduled jobs, data, integrations, workflows and business rules.
- Use Oracle SQL and PL/SQL to investigate application behaviour, data issues and existing system logic.
- Prepare clear functional specifications, system analysis documents, business rules and impact assessments.
- Coordinate work between business users, developers, QA and project teams and remain involved through implementation, testing and closure.
Required Skills and Experience
- 7+ years of systems analysis, business systems analysis or enterprise application analysis experience.
- 7+ years gathering requirements and preparing functional or system specifications.
- 10+ years working with Oracle SQL and PL/SQL.
- Ability to independently read and understand existing SQL and PL/SQL, including packages, procedures and functions.
- Experience investigating and triaging production issues and enhancement requests.
- Experience working directly with business users and coordinating work with development and QA teams.
- Experience analyzing complex enterprise applications involving business rules, reports, jobs, integrations and workflows.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills and ability to explain technical issues clearly.
- Ability to work independently, make sound recommendations and follow work through resolution.
Preferred Skills
- Oracle APEX experience.
- Experience with financial, insurance, pension, healthcare, ERP or other regulated enterprise systems.
- Jira or similar issue-tracking tools.
- Experience coordinating production support or enhancement backlogs.
- Agile or hybrid delivery experience.
