When looking for Associate Program Management roles, all the searches come up as Business Analyst. I’m a systems engineer with 3 YOE so would moving to a business analyst be a step in the wrong direction? I feel like I don’t have enough YOE for a program manager role.

YOE matters less than demonstrated results. What have you accomplished in those three years? I'd say avoid the detour through business analyst if you can. It might just be a matter of timing and waiting a little longer for the right APM position to open up.

You do, i made the move to apm with 2 yoe

I don't necessarily think it's a step down, it feels more like a lateral move in this case. I would consider still applying for a program manager role, but I do think you could do APM easily

So I have been offered a job at multinational company as a Data Engg. It was a part of the hiring event, and literally got selected with a VERY VERY SIMPLE technical assessment, and a 45 minute interview.

Just that the process was way too easy so quick. I do not even know the hiring manager.
