Senior Cloud Business Analyst (m/f/d)

Welcome to Auvaria, where passion, team spirit, responsibility, and professional excellence form the foundation of our culture. We are a multi-award-winning AWS Consulting & Engineering Partner with offices in Vienna, Hamburg, and Belgrade, and we accompany our clients as a trusted advisor throughout their entire cloud journey.

Whatever our clients plan in the areas of Cloud Transformation, Data & AI on AWS, we design and develop it together – from the initial architecture workshop to production.

To maximize value, we are looking for a Senior Business Analyst with a clear focus on Data & AI.

Your Responsibilities

• You independently lead the early project phases: from discovery workshops and evaluations, pre-sales activities to the development of business cases. You represent the business perspective throughout the entire project.
• You translate business strategies and industry requirements into robust business cases for data platforms, analytics and GenAI use cases (e.g., personalization, forecasting, automation, decision support) as well as for cloud transformations.
• You analyze our clients' business models and demonstrate how data and AI can improve KPIs such as revenue growth, conversion, customer lifetime value, cost efficiency, or scalability.
• You advise clients at management and C-level on Data & AI strategies, including economic evaluations such as TCO, ROI, and investment prioritization.
• You work closely with our engineering teams and develop a deep understanding of our services. You translate this into clear business value for various stakeholder groups.
• You prepare compelling decision documents such as presentations, visualizations, and dashboards, on which management bases informed strategic decisions.

You are a mature personality who understands how modern business models work and how data and AI can create measurable business impact. As a trusted advisor for stakeholders up to C-level, you are responsible for the business component of our projects, quickly immersing yourself in diverse contexts.

• Experience as BA: You have at least 5 years of experience as a Business Analyst or in a similar role, ideally in business or IT consulting or digital transformation. More experience is an advantage.
• Mature personality with C-level communication skills: You communicate confidently and authoritatively with senior management, quickly build trust, and establish yourself in strategic discussions.
• Understanding of the portfolio: You quickly grasp our portfolio – from Data & AI consulting and engineering to AWS reselling and managed services – and compellingly present it to clients.
• Deep understanding of industries: Ideally, you are familiar with various industries, their typical processes, KPIs, and decision drivers.
• Solid understanding of Data, Analytics & AI: You are familiar with modern data platforms and AI use cases and can assess their business potential.
• Excellent business case and analysis skills: You have a proven track record in conducting financial and economic evaluations such as ROI, TCO, and investment prioritization.
• Project and stakeholder management: You structure complex discussions, bring diverse stakeholders to a common understanding, and are familiar with agile working methods.
• Very good German and English communication skills: You translate complex technical topics into clear, business-oriented messages.
• Responsibility and curiosity: You take ownership of your tasks and show curiosity for new technologies, industries, and business models, especially in the dynamic field of Data & GenAI.
• Desirable: Experience with cloud environments, ideally AWS, is a plus but not mandatory.

What We Offer

• Real responsibility from day one: You have a direct impact on client projects and how we develop as an organization.
• 4-day work week (36 hours) with remote work option: To ensure sustainable performance and personal flexibility, we standardly offer our employees a 4-day week with 36 hours.
• Little but meaningful business travel: Travel is focused on moments where personal presence brings real added value.
• Continuous learning and certification: Full support in obtaining certifications and further training in Cloud, Data, Analytics, and AI.
• Strong team culture across all locations: regular after-work events in Vienna, Hamburg, Belgrade, and virtual, as well as face-to-face team events that create real connection.

Legal Notice: For this position, we offer an annual variable gross salary that exceeds the standard IT-KV rates. Depending on qualifications and experience, we will gladly discuss your actual earnings in a personal interview.
