• Experience in people leadership, managing and mentoring developers (or strong lead experience with clear ownership of team delivery).

• Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to translate business needs into practical technical solutions and drive alignment across teams.

• We see AI as an important part of how work gets done. While tools may vary, a baseline familiarity with using AI to support efficiency, problem-solving, and quality is expected.
