Sharks Web Services Limited Systems/Requirements Analyst/Architect Jobs in Kenya
ResponsibilitiesA systems/requirements analyst/architect is an individual who plays a crucial role in the systems development life cycle (SDLC) of a software project.
The SDLC of a software project may include systems analysts, architects, designers, developers, and testers, playing separate but interlinked roles.
However, at Sharks Web Services LTD, a systems/requirements analyst/architect performs the functions of an analyst, architect, designer, and tester.
We seek to recruit one additional member to our systems analysis/architecture team.
The successful candidate will gather software requirements, design, and test brand new systems that the company plans to develop and deploy and/or components of existing software whose functionality the company plans to modify and/or extend.
The successful candidate will act as an intermediary between system stakeholders (i.e., end-users of the system and/or the project manager) and software developers.
By effectively communicating with system stakeholders and software developers, conducting thorough research, and applying his/her own business and technical knowledge, the systems analyst will produce a requirements specification document by:
identifying user needs;
analyzing, prioritizing, and documenting the user needs to come up with systems requirements; and
designing the appearance (user interface), technical functionality, and error handling of the system.
The requirements specification document may consist of diagrams, graphical representations, use cases, storyboards, algorithm flowcharts, et cetera.
The systems architect will then present the requirements specification document to software developers for implementation.
After the software developers implement the system, the systems architect will test the system to ascertain that it conforms to their requirements specification document.
The systems architect will present any bugs identified from such testing to the software developers for rectification.
Education and Skills
A diploma or degree in any field. A Bachelor of Science (BS) degree in computer science or a related field is an added advantage.
Excellent software programming skills.
Proven experience working with client-side software technologies such as Hypertext Markup Language (HTML), Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), and JavaScript is necessary.
Experience working with
server-side scripting languages such as Python and PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor (PHP) is also essential.
Working knowledge of the Structured Query Language (SQL) and any relational database management system (RDBMS; e.g., MySQL, Microsoft SQL Server, and Oracle Database) is necessary. Experience working with general-purpose programming languages such as C, C++, and Java is highly desirable but not required.
Excellent documentation skills.
The ability to create neat, informative, and easy-to-understand reports, diagrams, graphical models, et cetera., is essential.
Great in mathematics.
Excellent problem-solving skills.
The successful candidate should possess a highly logical, investigative, and analytical mind.
Proactive and self-motivated. We are not looking for someone we will supervise as they work; instead, we are interested in an individual who will work under minimal supervision; an individual with a passion for software development, in general, and systems requirements analysis, design, and testing, in particular; an individual we will not always tell what to do, but who will not only advise us on what needs to be done, but they will also do what needs to be done within a reasonable timeframe.
A fast learner. Willingness and ability to research, learn, and apply new ideas quickly is extremely vital.
Attentive to detail. The ability to receive, decipher, process, break down, and explain complex technical information in a clear and non-ambiguous manner to non-technical individuals is important.
Excellent organizational and project management skills.
Above-average grammar skills.
Good team player.
