Senior Business Analyst (freelance) in Altamira

Altamira is a boutique IT company that delivers Digital and AI solutions to a wide range of international customers. Headquartered in Bratislava (Slovakia), we work primarily in the financial, pharma and retail sectors delivering mobile, web and platform solutions using an expansive technology portfolio.

We are proud of our teammates. As a fully remote company, we are building empowered, self-organized teams that are focused on personal and professional growth, and who share our customer obsession.

Altamira service delivery teams currently span Slovakia, Ukraine, and the Middle East, and we have ambitions to expand our footprint to meet the growing demand across Europe and into our primary growth markets in the UK and the US.

Please note: This role requires a flexible schedule, which may include working out of regular working hours. The position also necessitates the ability to travel occasionally to Zagreb. We are initially looking for a commitment of at least 4 working hours per day. After five months, there will be an option for a buy-out, allowing the candidate to transition into a full-time position directly with the client. This is an excellent opportunity for someone looking for both flexibility and the potential for a more permanent engagement.

Due to the specific terms of the customer’s contract, we give preference to candidates based outside of Ukraine. We appreciate your understanding and look forward to receiving applications from a broad range of locations
