Lead Business Continuity IT Analyst

📍 Ahmedabad 🏷️ Software Development 💰 ₹152,500 / month

About the Role

Thaltej on SG Highway in Ahmedabad has a Lead Business Continuity IT Analyst opening, full time, on site, with a team responsible for keeping critical systems recoverable if something goes seriously wrong. Eight years of experience is the expectation, and this role deals with scenarios most day-to-day IT work never has to think through in detail.

A Day in This Job

The work covers designing and building continuity plans, working closely with cross-functional teams, and documenting recovery procedures clearly enough that someone unfamiliar with a system could follow them under real pressure. Business continuity planning is easy to deprioritize until the day it's genuinely needed, which is exactly why this role exists.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Design and maintain business continuity and disaster recovery plans
  • Conduct risk assessments across critical systems
  • Document recovery procedures clearly for non-specialist responders
  • Lead periodic recovery drills and update plans based on findings

Qualifications

A bachelor's degree in computer science, information technology, or a related field is expected, along with practical, hands-on project experience and strong proficiency in the relevant tools and frameworks. Eight years is a genuinely senior bar, reflecting how much judgment this role requires around genuinely unlikely but high-impact scenarios.

Skills That Matter

  • Business continuity planning
  • Risk assessment
  • Documentation clear enough for a non-specialist to follow under pressure

Good to Have

Experience running a real recovery drill that surfaced a genuine gap in a plan, familiarity with a specific business continuity framework, and any background presenting risk assessments to leadership who'd rather not think about worst-case scenarios.

Why This Role

Thaltej's cluster of IT and business services companies has grown significantly, and this lead role's plans cover systems that other parts of the organization depend on without necessarily realizing how much thought goes into keeping them recoverable. Naukri Mitra has listed a few roles from this employer, and the lead analyst who previously held this position described the hardest part as convincing stakeholders to take a low-probability, high-impact risk seriously enough to fund proper testing rather than treating the plan as a document that only needs to exist on paper.

The Interview Process

Interviews include a scenario round working through a hypothetical system failure and a discussion of how you'd communicate risk to skeptical stakeholders. Candidates who can make a compelling case without exaggerating tend to interview well.

Benefits

  • Health insurance covering the employee and immediate family
  • Paid time off
  • Performance-linked bonuses
  • On-site cafeteria facilities and cab or commute support

This role is based at Thaltej, SG Highway, Ahmedabad, pin code 380059, five days a week on site. Pay runs up to ₹1,52,500 a month. The team hopes to fill this seat within six to seven weeks.
