Lead Functional Business Analyst

Location: Remote (U.S.)

Clearance: Ability to obtain and maintain a Public Trust

LTS is seeking an experienced Lead Functional Business Analyst to lead and guide a team of Business Analysts supporting a major AI modernization initiative within the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) health portfolio. This role owns the business analysis practice, process, and quality standards for the program — spanning business process analysis, requirements strategy, stakeholder engagement, and modernization efforts tied to mission-critical healthcare systems supporting Veteran healthcare services nationwide.

This is not a traditional BA leadership role focused solely on managing deliverables. The Lead Functional Business Analyst must be equally comfortable reverse-engineering business rules directly from existing VistA/MUMPS Prosthetics functionality as they are coaching a team of analysts to do the same — and must bring human-centered design (HCD) discipline to the process, ensuring legacy behavior is not simply replicated but validated and improved against real Veteran, clinician, and VA staff needs. This individual will work closely with government stakeholders, product owners, architects, the Governance & Architecture layer, and the BA team itself to translate current-state system functionality into well-governed, user-validated requirements.
