[Hiring] Business Analyst @Orases

Role Description

We are seeking a dynamic and results-driven Business Analyst to join our team. You’ll work on real systems with real users, alongside a team that invests in developing its people and gives you room to bring new tools and approaches into how we work.

We’re looking for a Business Analyst or Business Systems Analyst with 2 or more years of experience who’s ready to take ownership of their own work streams. You’ll join a collaborative team building custom software for clients across a wide range of industries, which means a lot of variety and a lot of chances to learn something new.

Above all, we’re looking for someone who’s a good teammate: adaptable, easy to work with, and steady when priorities shift.

This job description does not cover all duties and responsibilities. Team members may be asked to take on additional tasks as needed, which may or may not be directly related to their primary role, based on business requirements.
