Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Inovalon is a technology company focused on transforming the healthcare ecosystem through data-driven solutions. They are seeking a Sr. Business Analyst for their AI Prototyping & Automation team to identify AI automation opportunities and build prototypes that validate business cases. This role requires fluency in AI tooling and the ability to work in a fast-paced, ambiguous environment.
Responsibilities
- Maintain a pipeline of AI automation opportunities sourced from business unit intake, executive priorities, and direct stakeholder discovery
- Build business cases with quantified ROI: cost savings, revenue lift, hours offloaded, quality improvements
- Translate ambiguous business problems into well-scoped automation candidates with clear acceptance criteria
- Track opportunity status, prioritization, and outcomes against original projections
- Build functional prototypes of proposed agents and automations using modern AI tooling (LLM coding assistants, agent frameworks, prompt and skill libraries)
- Validate or invalidate business cases by getting a working version in front of stakeholders within days, not quarters
- Iterate prototypes against real user feedback before committing to engineering investment
- Produce demo-ready artifacts that move executive decisions forward
- Hand off validated prototypes to engineering with clear specifications, success criteria, and stakeholder context
- Deliver monthly executive reports covering pipeline health, in-flight initiatives, and realized impact
- Conduct post-implementation reviews comparing projected to actual ROI; capture lessons that improve future estimates
- Maintain compliance with Inovalon’s policies, procedures, and mission statement
- Adhere to all confidentiality and HIPAA requirements in accordance with Inovalon Operating Policies and Procedures
- Fulfill additional responsibilities reasonably assigned to support the operational and financial success of Inovalon
Skills
- 5+ years in business analysis, management consulting, product operations, or analyst roles
- Hands-on experience using LLMs and agent tooling — prompting, evaluations, and workflow orchestration. Candidates should be prepared to walk through a prototype they have built
- Working proficiency in Python and SQL: sufficient to query databases, parse API responses, manipulate structured data, and debug agent workflows — not expected to write production backend code
- Strong financial acumen: ROI modeling, sensitivity analysis, cost-benefit frameworks
- Strong written and verbal communication; comfortable in front of executives and engineers alike
- Intrinsic curiosity and a bias toward action; comfortable operating with incomplete information, learning new tools independently, and moving quickly in ambiguous environments
- Experience with modern agent frameworks (LangGraph, AutoGen, MCP, or equivalent)
- Domain knowledge in a compliance-heavy industry such as healthcare, financial services, or insurance
- Background in product management, business operations, or technology consulting
- Familiarity with continuous improvement methodologies
