Business Functional Analyst
Apply for the Business Functional Analyst role at NTT DATA Europe & Latam.
Who We Are
Based in the Romania Excellence Centre, Bucharest, our client seeks experienced professionals who value teamwork, pioneering technology, and innovation. We look for individuals who want to elevate their careers in a dynamic environment, developing new applications and migrating them to Google Cloud.
Our Know Your Client application enables advisors to collect information about new potential customers, calculate their risk, and decide via a workflow whether to accept or reject the customer as a client. All clients are also reviewed on a periodic schedule. The solution uses REACT for the front end, Java/Spring Boot for the backend, and an Oracle Exa-Database for storage. The instance is hosted on-premise, and a migration to Google Cloud with rollouts in new locations is in progress.
