  • Focus in “built in quality”, working early and often with QA to deliver quality code and manage the testing workflow 
  • Understanding of delivery velocity and measuring progress and end dates using visual velocity and burn-up charts 
  • Lives by lean principles such as MVP, the cost of delay and systems thinking 
  • Experience managing distributed teams of local, remote, and off-shore resources 
  • Proven record of delivering robust, on-time solutions with high client satisfaction 
  • Commitment to personal and professional development 
  • Ability to travel occasionally (when it is safe to do so again)
  • Must currently reside in the continental USA and be authorized to work for any employer

Ideally you will also have:

  • Experience in a consulting environment 
  • Performed the duties of a Product Owner in an Agile engagement
