  • Agile/Scrum expertise, with direct experience working within agile software development environments and squad ceremonies.
  • Strong analytical skills, with comfort utilizing BI/visualization tools and spreadsheets to extract insights and enable decision-making.
  • Excellent communication abilities, including strong written/verbal skills and experience presenting findings or recommendations to senior stakeholders.
