• Proficient in Agile Scrum methodology, with hands-on experience in a Scrum team.

• Good understanding of the software development lifecycle (SDLC).

• Familiarity with Jira and Confluence for tracking work and producing reports.

• Bachelor’s degree in computer science, Information Technology & Management, or a related field.

• Approximately 2 years of software development or IT experience preferred.
