  • Strong architectural and technical review skills, including the ability to evaluate trade-offs and guide teams toward scalable, supportable solutions.
  • Experience working across technical and business functions, including architecture, security, operations, application teams, and executive stakeholders.
  • Demonstrated ability to influence technical direction without relying solely on formal authority.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain complex technical issues to both engineers and senior leadership.
