• Track record of shipping features and releases on schedule through proactive risk management and dependency tracking
• Excellent communication skills across technical and non-technical stakeholders

Nice to Have

• Familiarity with agile tooling (Jira, Confluence, etc.) and development pipeline best practices
• Exposure to game development or interactive media production
