  • Ability to communicate solution designs clearly using standard modeling approaches such as UML or C4
  • Confident communicator who can explain complex technical concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
  • Practical experience working within Agile delivery methodologies such as Scrum, Kanban, or Lean
  • Experience integrating enterprise-grade SaaS-based IDAM platforms
