Communication & Collaboration:

• Clearly communicate with both technical and non-technical stakeholders, ensuring business partners are kept in the loop on key developments. Be proactive in meetings and provide constructive feedback and suggestions for improvement. Contribute to an open and collaborative work environment.

Quality Assurance:

• Willingness to speak up in meetings and offer ideas or suggestions for improvements.
• Comfortable with over-communication, ensuring that everyone involved stays informed.

Ideal Candidate:

• You thrive in collaborative environments and appreciate the importance of team dynamics.
• You have strong technical skills, but your approachability, flexibility, and communication skills are just as important as your coding expertise.
• You’re self-driven and can ramp up quickly on complex systems while staying focused on quality.
• You have experience or are comfortable working in a legacy environment and maintaining older systems with a keen eye for improvements and efficiency.
