Metrolinx is an agency of the Government of Ontario. At Metrolinx, equity, diversity and inclusion are essential to living our values of serving with passion, thinking forward and playing as a team.

The Business Analyst acts as a critical link between operational business units and technical delivery teams within the Operations division. This role focuses on delivering technology roadmap projects by translating complex business needs into clear data and technical requirements. The incumbent ensures that all solutions align with enterprise standards for data governance, privacy, records information management (RIM), and cybersecurity.

  • Execute technology roadmaps using project management discipline to mitigate risks and provide executive status reporting.
  • Facilitate cross-functional collaboration among Operations, IT, Cybersecurity, and Privacy to resolve bottlenecks and ensure regulatory compliance.
  • Act as divisional gatekeeper for data governance by operationalizing quality checks and enforcing enterprise standards across all projects.
  • Reduce operational latency by automating manual processes through Power Apps and Power Automate development.
  • Implement Lean A3 frameworks to conduct root cause analysis and deploy sustainable countermeasures for operational technology issues.
  • Perform data profiling and ETL logic validation using SQL and Python to ensure technical accuracy.
  • Translate technical requirements for business leaders through executive briefing notes and ROI-focused presentations.
  • Secure organizational buy-in for technology standards by navigating complex stakeholder environments and cross-divisional requirements.
What Skills and Qualifications Do I Need?
  • Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration, Engineering, Information Technology, or a related field.
  • Demonstrated years of experience in business analysis, project management, or data governance roles.
  • Proven track record of managing technology projects within a complex, multi-stakeholder environment.
  • Experience in the transportation or public sector is considered an asset.
  • Technical skills
  • Functional knowledge of data governance frameworks and data lifecycle management.
  • Basic to mid-level proficiency in SQL for data querying and Python for basic scripting or data manipulation.
  • Familiarity with cloud environments (Azure or AWS) and fundamental ETL concepts.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Power Platform (Power Apps, Power Automate, Power BI).
  • Understanding of cybersecurity principles, privacy legislation, and records management standards.
  • Knowledge of Lean, Six Sigma, or A3 structured problem-solving methodologies.
  • Professional and soft skills
  • Exceptional organizational and project management skills with the ability to lead parallel workstreams.
  • Strong interpersonal skills and the ability to foster collaboration across diverse functional groups.
  • Highly self-motivated with a demonstrated ability to show leadership and take initiative.
  • Advanced verbal and written communication skills, specifically in translating technical concepts for executive audiences.
