What does a Software Analyst do?

Question

Python

Hello everyone
Now I'm looking through some positions, I came across such a position.
Software Analyst
Knowledge of Python, Django
Knowledge of SQL at a basic level,
Good knowledge of Windows platforms,
English at least Upper-Intermediate
Experience with virtual machines,
Experience in web programming, Celery, RabbitMQ
Experience in C# programming
Experience in server machine administration
Experience in working with MacOS, Linux
Something judging by the requirements - this is a python web developer. And what about analytics?

Answer 1

In simple terms, a software analyst is a person who will tell programmers where the code does not work well and will offer options for simplifying and optimizing the program.
In general, this person should have a fairly solid work experience, because if this approach is used in a company, then this person is listened to. He can advise when you can use ready-made libraries, code sections, and when you need to write something from scratch. In my practice, I met with this position and the person 1 time in my life. It seems to me that this is a rather rare "fish" in our lake.

Answer 2

Well, how will he analyze it if he knows nothing?
