Business Analyst — remote role at RaftLabs
Business Analyst
Remote · Full Time
Remote position.
RaftLabs builds custom software for founders and product teams across the UK, EU, and North America. You will bridge the gap between client requirements and engineering delivery, running structured discovery sessions and producing specs that engineers can build from without a follow-up call.
What you'll own
Discovery: facilitate workshops and interviews with clients to surface real requirements beneath stated ones.
Documentation: produce BRDs, user stories, process flow diagrams, and acceptance criteria that are clear and ready to build from.
Scope definition: help define project scope at the outset and catch creep before it becomes a budget conversation.
Client communication: translate client language into engineering requirements and engineering constraints back into plain language.
Quality assurance: participate in UAT and confirm that delivery matches what you agreed with the client.
Data analysis: review existing workflows and data, identify inefficiencies, and recommend improvements.
Requirements
2–4 years in a business analyst or requirements engineering role at a software services or consulting company.
Has produced real BA outputs: BRDs, user stories, use cases, process maps — not just Jira ticket descriptions.
Client-facing experience: comfortable running requirements workshops and presenting findings to non-technical audiences.
Strong written English: your documentation represents RaftLabs to the client.
Async-first discipline: you move work forward without constant meetings and don't need to be chased.
Actively uses AI tools (Claude, ChatGPT, or equivalent) for research, drafting, and structuring discovery notes.
Hard filters — don't apply if
Your BA experience is entirely internal with no external client delivery.
You have never written a BRD or user story from scratch.
You need daily check-ins to stay on track.
AI tools are something you plan to use more, rather than something already in your stack.
Benefits
5-day work week: healthy work-life balance, not just a talking point.
Fully remote across India: work from wherever suits you.
Your setup, your call: no office, no commute.
Flexible hours: we care about what ships, not when you log in.
Annual offsites: the whole team meets in person once a year.
Questions about this role

- Yes. The position is fully remote. RaftLabs operates on an async-first model, meaning work moves forward through clear documentation and structured communication, not constant meetings.
