We are seeking a seasoned Senior Maximo Business Analyst / Data Analysis Lead to drive a critical multi-year asset management transformation within a rail and transit environment. This is not a generic BA role; it requires deep, hands-on expertise in IBM Maximo and the ability to translate complex rail maintenance operations into system-ready configurations. You will operate as a dual-threat lead: facilitating high-level requirement workshops with maintenance SMEs to define the 'how' of the system, while simultaneously leading the data strategy to ensure the 'what' (asset data, PMs, job plans) is cleansed, mapped, and migrated accurately. The ideal candidate is a Maximo expert who can command a room of frontline unionized workers and present strategic risk assessments to executive leadership.
Job Responsibility:
Facilitate high-level requirement workshops with maintenance SMEs to define the 'how' of the system
Lead the data strategy to ensure asset data, PMs, job plans is cleansed, mapped, and migrated accurately
Plan and lead sessions with rail maintenance SMEs to elicit and validate requirements for asset hierarchies, classifications, failure codes, and work management processes
Document current-state 'as-is' maintenance processes and design future-state 'to-be' workflows
Lead critical discussions between business practices and vendor recommendations to minimize customization
Prepare and maintain configuration workbooks, requirements traceability matrices (RTM), and decision logs
Lead the collection, cleansing, and validation of asset inventory, job plans, preventative maintenance (PM) schedules, and inspection forms
Use SQL and advanced Excel/Power Query to profile data, identify duplicates, and reconcile sources across legacy systems
Define data collection standards and templates
manage the data mapping process to ensure seamless migration into Maximo environments
Define data quality rules and validation criteria
prepare data readiness dashboards for project leadership
Requirements:
10+ years of business/data analysis experience in complex enterprise environments
5+ years supporting asset-intensive functions (Rail, Transit, Utilities, or Manufacturing)
Mandatory 3+ years of hands-on IBM Maximo experience in an implementation, upgrade, or configuration role
Strong SQL skills for data profiling and reconciliation
expert-level Excel (Pivot tables, Power Query)
Deep understanding of EAM concepts: Asset hierarchies, Job Plans, PMs, Meters, Failure Reporting, and Labor/Craft information
Rail or Transit experience is strongly preferred
Experience working in unionized/frontline environments is a significant asset
University degree in Business, Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field
Nice to have:
