  • You communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical audiences
Requirements

  • Experience with Jira Software and the Atlassian ecosystem
  • Experience supporting scaled agile frameworks (SAFe or similar preferred)
  • Experience working in enterprise or consulting environments
  • Strong stakeholder management and communication skills
