Downstream, Accounting, and Reporting Analyst (SRC JRB-040)

Job Mandate

Own the functional analysis and end-to-end build of downstream impacts for Deposits Modernization—covering accounting/GL postings, downstream feeds, regulatory/management reporting, and reconciliation controls.

Work with the Solution Analyst/Architect, Integration team, and business stakeholders (Finance/Accounting/Reporting owners) to ensure requirements are complete, testable, and successfully delivered across interfaces and downstream processes.

Duties and Responsibilities

• Gather and define functional requirements for downstream systems (accounting, GL/sub-ledger interfaces, reporting feeds, MIS/regulatory extracts, and reconciliation).

• Identify gaps/ambiguities in requirements and drive closure with business owners (Finance, Accounting, Regulatory Reporting, Ops).

• Define end-to-end flows for key deposit events and ensure downstream impacts are covered (account opening, maintenance, interest accrual/posting, fees/charges, reversals, closures, adjustments).

• Produce/maintain functional specs and interface-related artifacts (data mapping requirements, field definitions, validation rules, frequency/cut-off times, error handling expectations).

• Support SIT/UAT execution, defect triage, and retest coordination specific to downstream feeds and reporting outputs; ensure traceability from requirements to tests.

• Define and validate reconciliation controls (control totals, balancing rules, GL tie-outs where applicable, exception processes) and support sign-off packs/evidence.

• Coordinate cutover and post-go-live stabilization activities for downstream flows (day-1 postings, first interest runs, EOD/EOM processing, reporting cycles).

• Maintain RAID, decisions, and dependency tracking for downstream scope; provide regular status updates to Integration governance.
