Technical Business Analyst

Location: Baku (with possible travel to London / client sites)

We're looking for a Technical Business Analyst who thinks in detail, not just business ideas — someone who can turn complex reinsurance requirements into precise, step-by-step specifications that developers can build from without guesswork.

You'll work on CenataSure, taking ownership of your specifications from first draft through to delivery, and working closely with developers, QA engineers and our UK-based colleagues.

This isn't a role for high-level thinking alone. You'll need to describe the “algorithm” behind every requirement — the logic, the data behaviour, the worked examples — clearly and without padding. You'll be trusted to work independently: checking your own work for gaps, and agreeing solutions directly with UK colleagues without needing anyone to broker the conversation.

Responsibilities:

Translate business needs into clear, detailed functional specifications for CenataSure

Describe solution logic step by step, at a level developers can build from directly

Devise worked examples and test cases that prove a specification — including against other people's specifications

Investigate data and validate solution behaviour using SQL

Spot ambiguities, gaps and edge cases before development starts, not after

Agree and explain requirements directly with UK colleagues, owning the outcome

Support developers and QA through build and test

Help continuously improve how we write and structure specifications

Requirements:

Most importantly: the ability to think and describe things step by step — the detailed “algorithm” — not just business ideas in general terms

A technical or mathematical background

Working knowledge of SQL — joins, unions, grouping, selects — which we use often when talking to teams

Comfortable talking to developers in their own language, including reading shared code

Ability to communicate requirements effectively to both technical and non-technical stakeholders

Real attention to detail and staying power — solutions and examples need to be thought through properly, even when it's slow going

Clear, structured, logical writing and explanation — concise rather than padded

Genuine independence: comfortable checking your own work, building test cases against others' specifications, and dealing directly with UK colleagues

A fast learner with a real interest in the domain

Comfortable working in a fast-moving, sometimes unclear environment

A strong sense of ownership and responsibility

Strong English and Russian, written and spoken

Re/insurance experience is useful but not essential
