Embed user-centric thinking into design and delivery
Find and validate value through usage metrics, surveys, and experimentation
Help shape and align the team’s direction
Champion agile delivery practices and ensure regular, effective ceremonies:

Monitor and improve team performance metrics
Identify delivery challenges (e.g., blocked or slow-moving stories) and work with the team to unblock and improve
Create a culture of continuous improvement and technical excellence
Provide coaching, mentorship, and performance support for your development team
Collaborate on longer-term technical roadmap planning, especially around recurring bottlenecks and structural blockers
What You Bring
Excellent full stack development skills, especially with:
C# .NET, React, SQL, and PowerShell
Proven ability to write clean, high-quality, maintainable code
Strong communication and leadership skills – you build trust and alignment across functions
Experience with cloud technologies (particularly AWS)
Solid understanding of agile practices, delivery rituals, and performance metrics
Passion for continuous learning and helping others grow
Why You’ll Love It
Empowered, cross-functional teams with real ownership
A collaborative, modern product delivery environment
A strong culture of feedback, learning, and improvement
Work on meaningful software that creates real impact for users
