Your technical skills will be broad, covering aspects such as cloud services, application integration, data management and custom application development.

  • Clearly communicating challenges, options and the chosen technical direction to teams, stakeholders and peers. Guiding and supporting the engineering approaches adopted by agile teams to reduce risk and maximise delivery velocity.
