  • Excellent prioritization and project management abilities, especially in fast-moving sprint environments
  • Experience with agile methodologies, sprint planning tools (Jira, Linear), and engineering productivity metrics
  • Ability to balance competing priorities while maintaining team focus and morale
  • Technical depth to engage in architectural discussions and code reviews when needed
