Technical Depth: A strong technical background or proven ability to comfortably engage in technical discussions (APIs, cloud architecture, CI/CD pipelines, modern frontend/backend frameworks).
Tooling & Frameworks: Deep proficiency with Agile methodologies (Scrum, Kanban) and project management suites like Jira, Confluence, Linear, or Azure DevOps.
Communication: Outstanding client-facing consulting skills, stakeholder management, and clear written/verbal communication.
Execution: Strong risk management, scope management, and analytical problem-solving abilities.
Nice-to-Haves:
Prior hands-on experience as a Software Engineer, QA Engineer, or Solutions Architect.
Experience working within a software consulting, agency, or IT professional services firm.
Project Management Professional (PMP) or PMI-ACP certification.
Experience with scaled Agile frameworks (SAFe, LeSS) or managing multi-team deliverables.
