  • Background in Agile delivery environments, delivering software solutions in controlled increments (e.g., following Scrum, Agile Delivery phases, GDS Service Manual, etc.).
  • Broad understanding of modern programming languages, leading frameworks, distributed system architectures (e.g., microservices), and the full software development lifecycle, including use of CI/CD pipelines and automated testing.
  • Strong planning skills, with the ability to assign commercially robust estimates and work with delivery managers and Product Owners to align delivery plans with business objectives.
  • Experience overseeing and quality assuring the technical delivery of team members, mentoring others on best practice.
  • Commercial awareness with the ability to balance trade-offs where necessary to ensure successful delivery.
  • Effective communicator who can explain complex information to stakeholders, anticipate obstacles, and work under pressure within an agile environment.
  • Willingness to maintain relevant, up-to-date practitioner skills through continuing professional development and training, including accreditations/certifications.
