Business Analyst | Requirements, SQL data validation, UAT
Prachit Parikh is a business analyst. Most of his work sits where requirements, data and testing meet.
He takes what stakeholders say they need and turns it into requirements and user stories a team can build and test. Each one has acceptance criteria and a clear line to the test that proves it. He checks the data behind them in SQL and Excel, builds reports in Power BI, and plans UAT so a change goes live the way the business expected.
He was a business analyst at Banking Circle, working on data validation, traceability and UAT planning. Before that he worked in customer care at Elevance Health and did business systems analysis on an employee portal and an inventory system at Saklax Manufacturing.
