• Support production readiness activities including testing, security, monitoring, documentation, and operational handover.
• Ensure delivery aligns with established architecture, security, governance, and data‑handling requirements.
• Provide clear delivery updates to business, technical, and executive stakeholders.
• Work effectively with engineering teams and provide technical leadership and support when appropriate.

• Technical understanding of modern cloud and application environments, including areas such as AWS, APIs, Kubernetes, GitHub, CI/CD, data, security, testing, and observability.
• Demonstrated ability to manage timelines, dependencies, risks, resources, and delivery commitments.
• Strong client‑facing and stakeholder‑management skills.
• Ability to communicate effectively with engineering teams, business stakeholders, and senior leadership.
• Demonstrated ability to manage challenging delivery situations, negotiate priorities, resolve issues, and drive teams toward successful outcomes.
