NOTES FROM MANAGER:

• We're now looking for an additional resource, a Business Analyst that can help us on the current SN Asset Inventory / Rapid7 integration project as well as the upcoming Asset Management project (Phase 2).
• We are looking for an experienced Business Analyst with experience in Asset Management and not developer.
• We want to hire a six-months contractor to manage data cleanup, tagging (AWS tags, potentially in Service Now) and begin mapping servers to applications. The BA will also need to define the data cleanup process, etc. While we use/prefer SN, the process can be tool agnostic. This contactor should have familiarity with Inventory/Asset Management, preferably in SN.
• We will want the contract BA to start as soon as possible (in 2 weeks, say around Nov 1st).
• I would prefer experience with SN since that's the platform we're on. However, any additional experience with any other systems will also be a plus (i.e., AWS, Rapid7, etc.).
• They must have experience with Asset Management.
