Assess existing legacy code and system behavior to document intended and actual functionality
Support troubleshooting and system analysis efforts in collaboration with business stakeholders
Serve as the primary business-facing analyst, bridging finance, accounting, and technical teams
Prepare documentation to enable a future developer or engineering team to execute system changes or replatforming
Ensure Excel remains the preferred front-end experience for end users, including macro-level functionality
