• Deep understanding of the software development lifecycle (SDLC), including requirements analysis, architecture, development, testing, deployment, and support.
• Familiarity with modern technology stacks, cloud platforms (Azure, AWS, or GCP), and DevOps/CI/CD practices.
• Good financial acumen—experience managing project budgets, forecasting, and vendor/contract negotiations.

• Familiarity with AI/ML project delivery and working with data science teams.
• Experience with portfolio-level planning and PMO governance structures.
